Friends

Friends come and go. But some stay , either longer or forever. It's kind of hard to say forever though , as forever has no time limit , and no one can really foresee what will happen the next minute.

It's lucky to have just a few very good friends , those we share our joy , our sorrow and our everything with. Acquaintances might abound , but at the end of the day , what i cherish the most is that few souls that accompany me through thick and thin , that few beings that see me cry and see me laugh , that few friends that i would not trade for anything.

Out of billions of population that we have come to meet each other is a fate , and to become close friends is a destiny. To cherish it , to treasure it and to keep hold of it.

When we were young , 'best' friend might have an expiry date. 'Best' friend might change every once in a while. 'Best' friend must be the one that do everything together.

As we grow older , 'best' friend has become an antique , the older the better. 'Best' friend is the one that stand by each other even if the sky came crushing down. 'Best' friend don't have to be together all the time , but the heart is connected at all times.

Close friendship is not formed out of perfection. None of us are perfect. But the bond is formed because we have come to accept who each other is , to accept each other's weaknesses and accomodate each other's shortcomings.

True friendship is the one that is traded with heart , not money. True friendship is the one that , at the end of the day you will say ' Thank God , I know you!'
