How To Be Best Friends For Ever…

Friendship Day is celebrated on the first Sunday in the month of August. Wishing all of you today on this occasion!

Friend is a word which we know from our childhood days. Schools and colleges create a great space for friends and friendship. Friends are made in every walk of life and many continue with us from the school days and last long till old age. Lucky are the ones who are around friends. From our younger days these quotes made us realise what friendship is.

Friend in need is a friend indeed.

The ship that never sinks in the ocean of life is friendship.

The importance of Friendship is induced through Mythological characters like Krishna & Kuchela, Duryodhana & Karna. Many fables carry the message of true friendship and this helps children to understand the nature of friendship.

Today is Friendship Day. we miss many of our friends as they stay overseas or somewhere away from us. We can send messages and talk over phone. After school, it’s only a few who go to same colleges and study together. Later on career, marriage, family all take their turn and the quality time becomes very negligible. In order to maintain this good friendship and to make it last longer, a few simple measures are required.
