Hello guys! Wish you all a very HAPPY FRIENDSHIP DAY!!!!
I hope you all are happy and healthy and are taking care of yourself and your families.
So on the occasion of friendship day, let us talk about a very beautiful, special and pure relation, FRIENDSHIP.
So as you all know very well by now from my previous blogs, that I am an introvert ( and if you don't then please read my previous blogs. Pretty please?). Friends are basically a very important of everyone's life and especially introverts'. Introverts do not make friends easily. It is very difficult for them to initiate a conversation and thus making friends becomes a little difficult for us.
Friends are the family that we choose for ourselves. All of you might of observed that during school days, when we are very young, we usually have a lot of friends. Eventually as we start growing up, we lose touch with our school friends and only some of them stay in touch. You realise they were your only true friends during school; rest of them were just acquaintances pretending to be your friends.
When you start going to college, you realise that making friends become a little less easy; because you begin to see people's true colors. We begin exploring the real world, by coming out of our protected shell and gain various kinds of experiences. These experiences teach us to see the true intentions of people behind their fake faces.
Let me elaborate the above thought by one of my personal experience- There was a boy in my society who was my best friend from school. We used to hang out together, play in the ground and share each and every detail about day, everyday. Eventually he started liking me but my actions were clear as a friend. I trusted him the most and would always think that he is a person who would never hurt me. On my birthday I had some plans with my other friends and family so I did not get a chance to meet him. That thing hurt his ego so bad, I started hearing rumors about me, basically my character. Later on, I got to know that it was my own friend who was talking bad about me behind my back. I was seriously shattered. The one who was my best friend for almost 6-7 years and I trusted more than anyone did this to me.
That incident taught me that you need to see people when they are angry or disappointed with you in order to see their true intentions towards you.
One thing that I have learnt along the way is that, as your grow up, your innermost circle of friends (bffs) keeps getting smaller until you reach a point when it stays. Those few people who stay for a long time, always stay. They are your everything. They are the true ones!
My true ones are the few 3-4 idiots who tolerate me on a daily basis and they never complain no matter how many tantrums I throw. I know they will always stay!
I love them with my whole heart. Touch wood!
BYEEEEEEE
