There was a time in my school mind when I thought friends were needed when you sat around the school canteen.....when you crammed equations for the board exams....when you bitched about weekend classes....when you dreamt big into adulthood....when you dressed up for that theme birthday party.....And when my brain expanded into the professional studies scheme I thought they were needed to spice up your black and white classes....to flock together towards great career heights.....to just 'chill' and do all things so 'cool' and 'yo' in your twenties world.....
Slowly and steadily adulthood,matrimony and the 'oddly' termed settling down syndrome sets in and we are all parts of the yawning rat race and friends sometimes turned into guides, benchmarks, milestones and sometimes life altering support systems......
And then suddenly you stop and stare at at the mirror and realise that lots of childhood,adolescent and adult waters have flown....your 'grey' matter reduces and 'grey' hair increases in inverse proportion and you realise that you need a friend for no special task or reason....
We just need a friend a phone call away...a short walk away...or just a fb ping away....just to feel good....just to reminisce the good times past....just to feel
alive......just to spark that little speck of yourself left after carving out the wife,the employee,the daughter and mother in you...!!!
