Friendship - Why we don't keep in touch?


A friend in need is a friend indeed – a wonderful phrase. It has been well known and time tested. But do we always know when our friend is in need? At times, one can only guess and at other times, one never knows until & unless he/she is told.

The world we live in is a very cruel place. It demands a lot from its people - targets to be met, objectives to be achieved and lots of cash to be raised.
The rich people are always in the competition to get on top of the rich list. Expectations at the place of work have grown to such an extent that one is trained to see nothing other than his job and his company’s goals.

A true friend is one who overlooks all this and tries his best to keep in touch. Some do, and some don’t. Some keep in touch in the beginning and then wait for the other person to also take the initiative. After all, friendship is not a one way process. It is all about feelings, incidents, events shared between two people who trust each other. And this trust should always prevail no matter what.

People come into your life either for a reason, a season or a lifetime. Some people had a role to play in your life. Their work is completed and they have gone away. Others came into your life and left at their convenience. And the people who remain forever are your family and friends. And it’s right to forgive them if they have forgotten to say how much they care.

That’s the essence of Friendship.
