F.R.I.E.N.D.S

A normal routine day. A walk at work, and a thought strikes my mind. How would I define a best friend ? And these thoughts start to flow...


Best friends are those who know almost everything about you, and they know because you have told them those things yourself ( Needless to say, this was to differentiate between the SOBs who tend to find things about yourself owing to some gossip which is true :P )

Notice the word 'almost' which I have used. Think about it. It is fairly acceptable that you chose not to tell some things about you to your besties too. There can be many reasons for the same, varies from person to person. However, when you have a reason, you have a reason to not reveal some of your life's bits to them. A little hiding is always better than a small truth which messes things up, believe me. So, the crux of this paragraph in a line : Some things are known only to yourself. No one else knows and needs to.

These friends, I say, know what would you do in a situation and how would you react. They might not necessarily remember your birthdate or your favourite song or your latest flame's name ( Ok, let us rule out the third one.. They can't NOT know that !!) However, when they call and say : Sorry Sorry sorry.... when was your b'day ? last fortnight ? I am really sorry it went off my mind, you do not 'need' to forgive them because you understand they are dumb and would surely forget your birthday next year too ! These are the same people, who would leave no stones unturned to make you happy, when you are even a tad bit sad . You can be quite sure that they would kick in your nuts and make you suicidal when you are depressed about having a breakup, but in the end , surely save you :D

For all those who are my best friends, in some way or another, your place is very special in the making of my life and I am really glad that it was you who made that difference :)

Cheers !!
