Strong, happy, satisfied, complete … am I? Not without friends. It doesn’t matter how successful you get, it doesn’t matter which part of the world you’re living in – YOU NEED FRIENDS. To have great friends is a blessing, and to meet your old friends after a long time just to find them all the more affectionate is – blessing multiplied by 10.
” And speaking of friendships, make sure you keep them in constant repair. A person with three solid friends is very wealthy indeed.
Friends add humor, fascination and beauty to life. There are few things more rejuvenating than sharing a belly-bursting laugh with an old friend. Friends keep you humble when you get too self-righteous. Friends make you smile when you are taking yourself too seriously. Good friends are there to help you when life throws one of its little curves at you and things look worse than they seem. … Now I am alone ….

Chandigarh; friends; b’day and nostalgia (reunion ahoy!).
My stay at home just got completed.
Visited RKMA yesterday(met Atul Swami).
Met Ankur Gupta, Manish, Harman and Harry.
Scanned Sec17.
Went to Ankur’s hostel.
Met Dixit.
Stayed overnight at Ankur’s hostel, along with Harman.
Celebrated Ankur’s 18th birthday with an over-sized cake.
Met Saumyata today.
Now add a lot of nostalgia, laughter and good-moments to the above lines. Pure, non-polluted fun. Maza aa gaya. These moments may act as the driving engine for months to come. Until a few hours ago i had tricked myself into believing that my relation with one of the friends was showing sign of wearing out due to reasons unknown. But thanks to these lovely lines by Robin Sharma, i can swear that at least i will not let any of my old friendships go astray :
“And speaking of friendships, make sure you keep them in constant repair. A person with three solid friends is very wealthy indeed.”
Naturally, i love coming home.
