Friendship Day


Yet another friendship day is here. I never realize the fast running time till I am reminded with special days like today.

Today the Gift shops will be flooded with the Friendship bands.
The Flower shops will look as if flowers were only yellow.
Today People all over the world celebrate their Wonderful Friendships.

In my college days, I too used to be very busy tying friendship bands, giving gifts etc.
When I look back, am feeling as if I was so childish. The hours I had spent in Archies looking for the right Cards, the right Gift. Then running to the Florist for yellow flowers.
For very special ones I used to mix Red and Yellow flowers Just to show that I cared more for them. Those were the days when only things we had to care were these (Well books was secondary which we used to open only a month before exams).

Today things have changed. We can’t just play around like how we used to.
Life’s a bit serious now and we are always running behind the schedule.
If we slow down a bit, someone else is there always to take our place.

But still, today I found some time to recollect the dear friends that came to my life.
Some stayed and are still my dear ones.
Some stayed but are not as dear as they used to.
Some just left leaving some good and bad memories.

Even though People say “No Thanks/Sorry” between Friends, I just want to thank the ones who have stayed with me, the ones who still care for me.
Also thanks to the ones who have drifted away from me with time. Just want to tell them that they are still close to my heart.
And last thanks to the ones in the last lot for the good memories they left for me.
