As I am growing with experiences and age my friendships are changing too. It's certainly a transition; back in school days friendship mean't something else and now it gives a new meaning.
Currently, everyone of us is soul searching, chasing dreams and creating a strong social presence without losing our ground. This is the time when we are becoming more comfortable within our own skin and opening up to people with a sense of unknowing trust.
But, Friendship can be selfish too...yes, that's the hard part of it. The moment we stop getting what we want out of it, we can choose to walk away. That's called letting go too easily in my mind.
Just like any relationship, a friendship has the same elements: love, hate, distance, closeness, anger, sadness, laughter and tears. It is an emotional journey, one, that everyone should choose to imbibe on.
But, just like people fight for love, is it equally important to fight for friendship too? Is it necessary to not let go of your friends so easily?
Yes, to some extent I agree, If you have an inner circle of friends that stand by you in good and tough times then yes.
It is an amazing feeling to be secure in something as important and life-giving as friendship, to know that your relationship is not dependent upon your capacity to always do the right things or say the right words; to always be calm and be diplomatic in short. This is the good part of friendship.
Given the good and bad, both facets of friendship....is it really important to fight for it?
Considering the good times, bad times, the emotional times, the silly times...and all other times where you can just be yourself and flaunt your personality without regret....be accepted with your flaws within your inner circle...yes it's worth to fight for this kind of a friendship.
Anything, less than that is not a friend for me....either you choose to be one way or the other...there is no middle ground that exists.
My friends are my souvenirs of life and I choose to fight for everyone of them. As long as they wish to tolerate me willingly we will continue to share a pleasant space and be bounded by our hearts.
