Best Friends Forever
Here’s another diary entry of the ordinary girl. Lets read it together..
Dear Diary, I have been feeling low for quite days now. But keeping up a smile and just going on with your life is what we all do at times. But there are people who see through it and these are none other than friends. “Friends” the word in itself means the world. It can’t be defined with a single definition. It means different to everyone. To a person like me who rarely makes friends, friendship is definitely more than life. It feels so special when friends care, going extra mile just for you! As I wasn’t feeling like to anything, a friend Β came and dragged me out of my cocoon! Thank God that I have friends like that. Doing totally random things I am now feeling much better. Love you all. Speaking of friendship, is it always a happy thing that happens to a person? Doesn’t it hurt too? Surely, it does. π Friendship is a two way street and it definitely hurt if it turns one-way. It hurts when you care and others don’t. It hurts when you become invisible to your own friends or an outsider in your own group. Ignorance of others doesn’t hurt but when it comes from the friends you thought could see through you, it hurts worse than ever.Β When you know that there is someone who can be there for you. you expect them to be there for you. You expect them to be there for you and when they aren’t! It hurts! So, Friendship is not a relation, its a experience sweet and sour! Friends don’t come and go, Sharing smiles of joy, Ordinary Girl. |
What does friendship mean to you? Are you as sensitive towards friendship as this ordinary girl is? Do share your thoughts!
You may read the other pages of diary here! The thoughts shared aren’t from the personal diary of the writer. They are based on observation and input from friends and personal experiences.
Here’s the best thing I’ve ever heard said about friendship:
“A friend is one to whom one may pour out the contents of one’s heart, chaff and grain together, knowing that gentle hands will take and sift it, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.” -George Eliot
That’s the kind of friend I want to be. With God’s help anything is possible. π
Lovely words Robert! I hope you find a friend like this! Thanks for the visit π
Awww…love the poem. Yes, friendship is precious; it sounds as if Ordinary Girl shared part of her soul with someone who betrayed it. I’m glad I found her (and you) through A to Z! Ordinary Girl doesn’t have just ordinary thoughts. She is beautiful. BTW I really like the visual aspect of these posts with the notebook and script π

Thank you so much for appreciating the hardwork π
This is a nice post, a tribute to friendship. I love all my friends, whether I’ve met them personally or not. My very best friend, my love, has passed to the other side, but he is still there and watches over me. Yes, friendship is sweet/sour, as you said, but some of my favorite use sweet/sour sauce.
Very sweet poem. Friendship is a two-way relationship – not always equally giving and taking, but certainly overall a successful one requires that both are giving to each other. You’ve given us much to think about in the meaning of friendship.
I’m glad you liked it. Thanks for the visit and sharing your thoughts π
Nice poem! Yes, true friends are pretty rare in life, at least going by my own experiences. Those are the ones you would do anything for and vice-versa. So-called “fair weather” friends only hang around as long as things are fun and light.
Exactly Debbie! And these are the friends forever to keep!
I appreciate the ‘innocence blending with introspection’ quality of this post. The ordinary girl is getting more and more reflective, it seems π
The diary is the reflection of the thoughts of this ordinary girl.. Much more to come, stay tuned! Thanks for your visit Beloo π
Sorry for visiting late honey!!!! Was sleeping happily!! π π I was hoping that you should write about BFF and you wrote π <3
Well I’ve seemed to read the mind of my partner in crime! So what do you C stands for? π
And you are surely not late! You are far ahead of me! I’m still stuck at A π
Nice read to describe friendship. It has a complete different dimension in comparison to all other relations…
Exactly Jayanta! Friendship is totally different aspect of life!
Well worded. Really liked the poem!
Thank you Aditi π
Friendship is definitely a two way street…I frankly have been very unlucky when it comes to friendship..and now I don’t care anymore… But it still hurts!
I understand there is a part of us who always wants a close friend to be by our side and his/her absence indeed hurts. I hope someone fills this void in your life really soon!
Friendship is a path where there might be thorns too but then that shouldn’t stop you from going further to find the roses.

Thank you Rajlakshmi π
I have similar friends, who when I am low, pull me out of my cocoon. They have pampered me a lot through times that I have become a sort of dependent on them. Without sharing significant details of my life I feel incomplete! I am glad I have them. Loved the poem and this page of diary π
You are lucky to have them! I’m glad that you could connect! Thanks for visiting π
Made me remember the days I used to write down in my diary…. Loved this! π

Its great you liked it.. Hardwork paying off π
Just Google and a bit of html skills π Education seemed to have come handy here!
Friendships mean a lot to me. But not everybody can form a part of that circle, I ensure only few make it finally.

Yah, but it hurts when you try and still are left out!
Loved the poem, friendship means never having to say sorry π I have a few friends i can depend on for anything.
That’s great! I also have a bunch of them π Thanks for the visit Sulekha π
What is life without friends? Thanks to mine, I’ll never know! π Lovely post Nibha!
Thank you so much! I guess life without friends is just as empty as an ocean without water!
Friends are rare who care & share all the ways n all the times.one is lucky one who has such
Rare now-a-days………………
Exactly! Couldn’t agree more with your words π
Of course, real friends, never come and go… its always a blessing to have some who can be there through your rough and happy moments π Lovely letter!
Yup! And lucky are the ones who have these friends π
Thank you for your appreciation Kajal π
Friends re forever, and when there’s a misunderstanding, it hurts a lot ! Well said, Nibhz !
Yes indeed! And you just can’t concentrate elsewhere!! π
Thanks Sreeja! π
Friendships are precious but I’m not sure if they can really exist forever. I’m willing to be corrected of course! π We tend to grow and sometimes, not together. Having said that, I still treasure my friendships… past and present…
Well so I have been quite lucky in friendships and they have stayed with me so far! Friends are the real treasures of life π
