Funny dimensions

They are funny these relations. Does anyone remember exactly what it is that has made that one specific person or more your best friend. It is highly impossible for me to say that these are the ingredients required to create my best friend. Many have come and gone. And in the short span I have lived, I have seen my so called best friends go by without a goodbye. But that doesn’t leave me alone. I have many more to chose from and so do you. Isn’t it so? Bored on the way back home with no entertainment call up your friend and talk leisurely. Harrowed with a love problem or find yourself falling for your colleague then bug your friend endlessly about it. What else are they there for? They don’t have an existence of their own. But if they do then you will have to make time for their issues too.

It is lately that I have realized we don’t have one so called ‘bestest buddy’. There is no hardcore rule; no one is going to imprison you if you have more than one. At times best friend no. 1 may not understand your plight, so best friend two is just appropriate for it. I am lucky to have an endless list of great friends who I can awake in the middle of the night shamelessly to talk about the new message I received from my crush.

When a relation breaks, I wonder how it could be possible that just a moment ago I was dying to share every secret of my life to her/him and the other moment I hardly wish her/him a Hi. How it could be that my judgement about my selfless friend turned out to be wrong. But then it is just that like your clothes will fit you till only a point, your friends will stay with for that limited time. It is you who has to move on and make room for more people who may just be eligible for that position.
For me my friends are like my saviours, my second skin, the peace to my soul because they are there when even family refuses to help. I know I can face the storms bravely because the umbrella that I have created for myself or that God has created for me will always be present over my head sheltering me from all harm.
