Friendship is a relation that does not need a single day to cherish your friends and it’s a lifetime affair. Considering the importance of friends in one’s life, the US Congress in 1935 declared the first Sunday of August as National Friendship Day. Due to its popularity, the day is still being celebrated as Friendship day every year all over the world.
It is well said that the true friendship is like sound health, the value of it is seldom known until it be lost. We usually keep a casual approach towards friends. We do not realize their value till the time they play an important role. The true friend is one who has the inner beauty of soul. One’s dress up, fashion sense, their coolness quotient is not the parameter to qualify them as a good friend. It is their devotion, helping attitude, affection and reliability which make them the best of friends. There may be occasion when you will require support and a friend will himself lend a helping hand without seeking anything in return. That is called true friendship. The best of friends cannot be separated by distances even. They will remember each other irrespective of territorial boundaries. Many of us would be having friends across the globe. Some of them, we would have not met anytime in person but still there would be something which makes them special in our lives.
Friends are our storehouse of secrets. However, worrisome or petty issue it may be, the things which are unable to discuss in with our parents or siblings can be easily discussed with friends. Today, reach out to those friends who have always been at your side to take care of you and pamper them by extending your gratitude. Shower them with love and affection for all they have offered you, shared with you. Happy Friendship Day All!
