Who is a friend?

The ones face who comes up to your mind, when you see those funny and hilarious Facebook and WhatsApp memes? The one face flits by when you are feeling down in the dumps? That one person who has been there for you for a long time? One of those many people, who were there for you at different point of time? Someone who lives only in your memory? Someone you play a netball with? Someone you messaged all day with? That one person with whom you had a never ending arguments with? There will be no any single logic, theory or formula to be a friend!

Even though, nothing is happening in the here and now, a friend still inspires that unexpressible feelings that make you feel you're alright. At certain point of time in our life, we couldn't imagine a day passing by without meeting or having a conversation with this some particular person. With that same person, weeks or even a month now passed without a single word. When life seems to squeeze us from all directions, sometimes we decide reaching out to friends is more than we can handle.

Some friends lost to distance, and some others to time. Perhaps all you can do is to send a silent wish "Our lives have got in between us." When you are being all alone and having some conversation with your minds, the mind seems to torment in a thunderous voice, "You are all one. You will always remain alone." You cannot reign over your mind if you fight it as if it were a devil disguise.

But if that you can see it's a little child, the little you, throwing tantrum, crying out loud for that one real friend, then you have hope. Someday maybe!
