Friendship - A Mysteric Relationship

Friendship – A Mystic Relationship!

They say Friendship is the only relation we choose on Earth!!! But is this the case? Do we really choose friends or they are simply destined to meet us? We just walk our path and then people join us. Some became an integral part and some just walk with us, because our destinations are same. While in other case some help us find our way and some are our way.

We don’t plan anything in friendship. It can never be panned. Remember the good old days, when in school, the person sitting next to you was your best friend. This was the age, when we didn’t know what a friend is? What friendship means? But still we used to share each others lunch boxes, stationeries without even bothering to ask. We moved on together from one class to another with a feeling that this is the world. This is how we will always be together. Then the harsh fact slowly touches us, this is not the end but a mere beginning. We have to move to many other places, in the course of our education and later for profession. Every place we move we will be joined by new people with new relationships destined for us. As we grow, we miss the old days and just wish that they should come back. Many of us, at least once want to travel through the time machine to the best time of our life which is surrounded by friends. It is said that as god could not be everywhere so he created MOTHER; so it would not be an exaggeration if we say that GOD couldn’t send his angels down on earth so he created FRIENDS.

Friends are the eternal motivation; they provide you with the boost when you are down. They are a shoulder to cry, they are the perfect person to share happiness. Many a times it is difficult for us to tell something to family but such things come out naturally in front of a friend. Whenever you climb the ladder of success, they are the one who are happier than you. They express their joy by telling about your success to every other person they meet. In Marketing terms, they are your advertising man and they don’t see business in this but visualize relation. A learned person had said once, if in your life time, you have earned one friend, you have lived your life fully. One can’t count the selfless deeds done by a friend. Even the Bollywood is not untouched with the magic of friends. The box office was HIT “House full” when 3 friends lived their life and just gave a mantra to the new generation “Dil Chahta Hai!. Then a film came wherein through the making of history four friends fought for the justice of a friend who faced death. Whether it is the age old “Dosti” or the new awakening “Rang De Basanti”, every film tries to portray the commitment and the dedication involved in Friendship. In today’s modern age of telecommunication, contacting a person is not that difficult. With a click or ring we are beside our friend sharing all small things whether important or not, we just share. Remember the time we just call to a friend just to say “Hi, where are you?” The conversation takes us no where but it gives us the satisfaction that today also we don’t need a reason to talk to each other we just talk. As days pass we become occupied by our own chores and it is not possible always for a friend to be present beside us, who was always a shoulder to cry or hug to relax or a pat on the back on achievement. Still, we know that, whenever alone, a hand grabs ours and softly speaks in our ears “Don’t be afraid, I am Here, Always!”

The support of a friend gives us power to fight with the world. It is the force within which keeps us moving further and further till the land beyond the sky. No man can explain this in words, and the discussion goes on and on which leads us to a different land. A friend beholds a super natural power within which connects with us and may be because of this the relation, Friendship is a Mystic one!!!

On this occasion I would like to dedicate this small piece of my thought to all my friends who helped, motivated and supported me all through my life.
