There are so many of these ' days' that are being celebrated now a days that I am bewildered at the mind-boggling variety and the sheer numbers of these monstrosities that are foisted upon us, exploiting our sentimental and tender-hearted emotions
Having said that, there is one among these that is special to me, just for the simple reason that it celebrates people in my life who have been more to me than even family. Without being sentimental and misty-eyed, this piece today is my ode to the few friends in my life who have kept me sane when everything around me was maddeningly falling apart.
Someone rightly said," A true friend walks in, when the rest of the world walks out".
The balm of their understanding, the benevolence of their friendship and the show of solidarity when I, like Atlas toiled and struggled to uphold the burden of my adversities, helped me overcome those difficult times. I am who I am and I am blessed for having a few people in my life, who are bound to me , not by blood, but by bonds that are deeper than blood; for they have shown me what it means to be a true friend.
Humbled and blessed, I thank each one of you my dear friends for embracing me and loving me.
A special thank you to all my friends,we don't need daily conversations as we are all in each other's thoughts and hearts always.
