Friends and Friendship

It is a Saturday night and well I am blogging now. I did not do much work today because I well deserved a break. I listened to songs and talked with a few friends over the phone. It feels so wonderful to talk with them. One friend was so angry on me because I did not talk with him for such a long time. But I did all that i could within my powers to make it up to him. Did I ever tell you people that my friends are very important to me in my life. I don't have many. I just have a few of them but I can trust on them with my eyes closed. There is nothing on earth that they don't know about me. And i too know everything about them. Back in my school days whenever we used to have fights, we had strange ways of getting things fixed and not a single thing has changed even today. We can go to any lengths for the sake of friendship that we share. I remember telling a classmate during my university days that '' Love is okay. But friendship is more important. '' I have male friends who tell me '' hope my wife is going to be like  you .'' And this is not because they are in love with me or something but the comfort level that we share is what our generation would term as ''cool ''. One even asked me that whether i am making more friends now a days. I was quiet on the other side of the phone. The friend got my answer and the friend smiled and exclaimed '' You have not changed a bit, and that is why we are still good friends. '' True that. I will talk with everyone or sometimes maybe not, but i have always been very choosy about my friends. It takes me time to develop trust on  a person and once i know that our wavelengths match to an abnormal degree , i do not look back. The friendship starts and i make sure that it never ends. I won't give my life for them and i am sure neither will they [ because they are my friends, lol] but they will always find me by them whenever they will need me and they know that. We know exactly how to give each other the respect, love and time. I know friends who will not talk with their boyfriends or girlfriends till three or four in the morning, but they will do that with me because they like it and they love me. I wish a day comes when all my friends and I can watch the sunrise together. I am sure those few friends who are reading it will immediately say '' Hell no!!!, not all of us. Just you and me.'' I don't have a problem with that either as long as i get this beautiful feeling that usually comes to me when i like staring at beautiful things all alone. Some people ask me if all my friends are nerds like me. Well no, absolutely not. I love smart nerds but not all of them are of my category. I mean just because someone loves reading books does not mean that i will like that person. My liking for people varies depending on many factors. But all my friends have knowledge and they do educate me on various things. One common thing about all of them is that they love me very much. They never hurt me. Recently i had this misconception or rather i would say that i put my trust on a person thinking that , that person is a friend. But thank God I realized it early that it was not the situation actually. That person did hurt me a little and the apology was just two text messages. If a person ever shows you that you are just worth two text messages, that person is an asshole or a bitch [ fit it as per the gender ]. If i can go to lengths to actually keep a friendship intact i shall expect a friend to do the same. If that person cannot do that, that person was never a friend. And you can keep away such people. Some people might think that these are juvenile issues. But i don't think backstabbing has ever come under the category of juvenile issues. Has it?  Did i not tell you in my previous post that for some people their wake up call is always about '' How to hurt this person? How to damage this person? How to make her come begging to me? What else can I do to make her feel down? '' If you get such vibes from any person , immediately leave that person- whether he or she is friend, colleague, cousin or a lover. Such toxic people do not have a stable mind. They do not have any sense of integrity and are highly shallow people. They tell one thing, do the other. They are nice to you on your face, and talk shit about you on your back. They know you as long as you serve some need to them. They will stick to you if they find you in mass demand or if they feel that you are popular. They are extreme opportunists.They are basically sociopaths. I shall forever be grateful to this place for showing me such bad natured people. Thank God that we have good humans too. I know them. And above all I believe in God. I know he has his ways to make us wiser. And whatever he chooses to show us, has its own reasons. Bad experiences teach us. It is upto us how we take it and learn from such experiences. We do not always need to change ourselves in a bitter way but we can definitely change a few things about us. I am happy that my closest friends still love me for that way I am. They respond to my weirdness with an equal weirdness. They will do anything to cheer me up if they think I am in a bad mood. And they help and love me unconditionally. What more can I ask for?
P.S - That does not mean  my ' moner manush' has arrived. God are you reading my blog?
