Friendship ReLoaded

I’m no awesome poet like William Wordsworth to make a poem glorifying friendship and all that... so I do what normally talented people do these days...write (sorry... TYPE!!) a 200-250 word essay... Again glorifying friendship. But I’m not just going to do that (too boring)...instead bring in the hard-core reality. Don’t tell me you have a personal true best-friend (stop lying... and if you do...Thank God every minute for it) who actually goes by the saying ‘’A Friend in need is a Friend Indeed’’. No, it’s not change in human nature...he was stinky before... and will still be afterwards. The society has changed; people are made to lay importance to other things, which have come up in the new millennium; money, rise in prices, politics, affairs (financial and personal), job, wife, children needs(+ 100 more problems), taking care of parents, and before that parents fussing over you, ..........(wait...lemme catch a breath)...........yes; cricket, football, Olympics, what to drink while driving, who is deepika dating, why doesn’t prakash interfere, etc.etc.etc.^100 .NOW, let us see the teenager factors... studies, annoying siblings, pocket money, FACEBOOK (which includes 1000+ problems (although we don’t realize them)for example...you make a joke, but in the process committing the crime of the century(forget to put simple tongue-out emo.) and the friend won’t move from it till you come online(damn bastard why d’ya havta b offl9 all the tym u fag)and etc.etc.etc.(want another example.....GET LOST))

Please don’t go under the impression that I’m against friendship... so please don’t create a page/group stating ‘’DELETE YOUR F***** NOTE, ZAGAAANDU’’. What I’m trying to state is... it’s easy to start a friendship... but difficult to maintain it. DAMN DIFFICULT. You just need to show your calm, composed mode in the beginning, be good at SOME sport, and blabber nice but strong words (EASY). You’re now loaded with friends (yyaaayy!!!). NOW comes the difficult task... maintaining those friends (easy again!!I’m smiling); just maintain your standards(smile a bit off), stop showing off(smile off the face), don’t tell lies (brows and lines coming on forehead) and be there whenever you’re friend needs you, even if he has a problem in flushing the toilet( Are you tensed up and crying??).

It is difficult keeping a friend, but the effort has come from both the parties; if it’s getting one-sided, just dump that idiot off and find someone else.

P.S. I’m again mentioning this... friends are important in our lives...it’s the 11th commandment... that’s why we squat our haunches in front of the laptop/computer. Don’t mistake me
