Friends.....


I have always wanted to keep in touch wit my friends but till date, I have not been very successful in doing that. Those long mails from people who are near and dear to me are like energy boosters and I wonder how many times I have returned the favour.I know that friendhsip is not like "you do this and I do that" ,but it demands a certain amount of effort to give those weekend calls or "wats up " msgs or casual mails. At the end of most conversations with my friends, I always ask my friend to keep in touch wit me not fully realising that I'm the one who is not doing that. From my childhood days till this instant, I have always been gifted with a good set of friends wherever I go(be it school,college or my workplace) and if they are not by my side today, I have only myself to blame.There have been many instances in which their incoming calls were missed and their mails left unanswered. But the minute I call them up to find out whats happening in their lives or write a simple mail , they always feel happy and respond immediately which makes me feel on top of the world. I have lost a couple of great friends because of my laziness to be in touch with them inspite of their repeated mails and phone calls to contact me. I'm sure that if I call them up at this particular instant, they would put the past behind them and continue to make me feel special as they always do. Friends are an integral part of us without which life would have been incomplete!Do stay in touch with your friends:)
