Friendship

It is indeed a universal truth that like poles repel while unlike poles attract each other. Three people from three different corners of the country were put together because of that one beautiful place called home. It felt like this friendship was just meant to be.

I met Priya and Purvi in the summer of 2008. It’s funny and bizarre how the three of us gelled well immediately. We had nothing much in common. Our religion, native place, personal interests, taste in guys, even ages are different. Purvi and I are both Gemini and Priya, a Scorpio, balances us.

In spite of conspicuously contrasting tastes we get along like a house on fire. Between the three of us, we don’t know what embarrassment is. We believe in enjoying ourselves and very selfishly do only that. With Priya and Purvi I can never worry about what the world shall think about me. It feels like we were just put together in the same place and accidentally, we bonded well. Maybe we were just meant to be friends.

I have never opened up to anyone until I met them. Whenever I pause for a second and look back at the past the very first thought that comes to my mind is of Priya and Purvi.

I don’t remember most of my experiences before 2008. Maybe I learnt how to enjoy the journey called life after I met these fantastic people.

In times high and low they’ve been there for me ALWAYS!!!

We’re like three differently shaped and colored fridge magnets sticking to a common surface called ‘The Woods’. Try as you might we just cannot be separated. We may be miles apart but we’re still tied together by a strong bond.

 

After all, isn’t this what a great friendship is all about?
