When i was young, I thought that having too many friends is cool, hanging out with them, tagging and posting pictures online with them is very fascinating. But as i grew up, i lost most of the people i used to say are my friends, only a few of them are in touch. It was the time that made me realise that friendship is not just about hanging out together all the time or calling each other frequently. But friendship is something that doesn't demand any said promises, as it is a promise in itself to be there for each other even when one never asks for it. I too have few lovely people in my life who aren't just friends but gems for me. Others are just like clouds which will fade away with time.
I believe that friendship lasts longer when there is an understanding between people, even when you don't call or text each other for days or weeks or months, but deep down you know that they have not forgotten you, they are just busy with their lives. At a certain point in life, everyone has to focus on their priorities. Everybody is busy growing and becoming the best version of themselves. so, a friend is someone who supports you in every way possible and not just someone who judges you for ghosting them.
It's a wonderful feeling to have a few people in your life with whom you can share everything, be it your successes or failures, your strengths or weaknesses or anything happening with you good or bad, to whom you rushes for solution of your problems. They are the ones who will never leave your side no matter how broken and lonely you feel. They are someone who aren't around you all the time but they are always there for you in need. And now i actually know the meaning of friendship!
If you are surrounded by people who know you are not okay just by looking at your face or at the messages you send them, people who know you a little better than you know yourself, people who don't leave your side when you are at your lowest, people who makes you smile when you forget to smile. Thank them right away. It's time to scream and let them know that they are special because life is too short to wait for the perfect moment!
