Assalamualaikum
F.R.I.E.N.D.S
They are like candy. We choose them according to which we like. However, sometimes, we can simply be friends with others not according to our interest but due to an element, BOND. We have no reasons for it or why or how a friendship started. It is simply 'that' something that creates the bond.
We can have many friends. Tonnes of them. BUT... The best ones are hard to find. In order to get the best, we have to go through many stages of life. Until then, you will discover your true friends.
1. Childhood Friend
I discovered my first bestfriend when I was still young. Can't remember how young I was. She is my neighbour, until now. Our friendship has been going on for nearly 20 years, if I am not mistaken. So, due to the 'long-term'ness, the bond is strengthen over time and we have understood each other very very well. We are available for each other when in need. Though we had experienced problems, misunderstanding, etc, we managed to overcome and continue our friendship. Of course there were a few nitty-gritty issues but we just have to swallow it and ignore it. Some small issues should be straight-away be deleted, not worth to make a commotion. As we get older, we have different mission in life, different way of life and many other differences. Sometimes we planned to meet up but cancelled at the very last minute due to personal matters. So, we try to understand each other, try to make time and follow the flow. That's how it works.
2. Room mates
Room mates are the next group of people who can be considered as close to us (in my opinion). I have great room mates over my five years of staying in hostel. Before this, I never trust any of my room mates because I am afraid if I overtrust them and they will take me for granted. So, again, over time, I observed my room mates and chose a few to be my good friends. Whom I can trust and rely on. Until now, we are still good friends and bestfriends too! Our friendship also gone through the same stages of life where we encountered a few life crises. Haha! I remembered it was horrible and terrible. However, because of those crises, we understood each other better and became even close to each other. We have graduated, unofficially (not yet convo) now but we still keep in touch and text each other every now and then. We miss those time when we were staying together, through the best and the rough time.
So, this is my story about bestfriends. Not much, really. I know. =D
I just want to share it, in case any of you is having a thought on this topic. I will add more if I can think or recall anything.
Maybe you have different ways of getting a bestfriend. Everyone is unique. Everyone has his/her own story.
