I’ll Be There For You, When the Rain Starts to Fall

“Time was passing like a hand waving from a train I wanted to be on. “

As friendship day is upon us, nostalgic moments from our childhood and school days flood our memories. Anais Nin beautifully quoted “Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.”

The National Friendship Day is celebrated every year on the first Sunday of August.  There is not much history that can be garnered for this day except the fact that the US Congress proclaimed this day as the Friendship Day in the year 1935.

Blood Is Thicker Than Water But the Bond of Friendship Is Rock Solid. If you are fortunate enough to have one or more true friends, count your blessings. On Friendship Day, celebrate your closest pals. You only realize the value of true friendship when others have abandoned you.

Sadly, changing circumstances test even the best of friends. Friendship stands on the three pillars of trust, honesty, and love. If any of these pillars wobble, the edifice is in danger. Take this Special Sunday off to be with your closest friends. If you can’t be with them take this opportunity thank them because remember “fate chooses our relatives, we choose our friends.”
