"The
difference between a friend and a real friend is that you and the real friend
come from the same territory, of the same place deep inside you, and that means
you see the world in the same kind of way. You know each other even before you
do."
~Laura
Pritchett
Real friends... there's no way of defining them. These are those
implicit relations that grows day after day. They form a very crucial part of
your support system. They are the very pebbles &stones of your bedrock. You have each other's
back every time you feel like having one. Many times you agree by dissenting. You never actually fight but, keep pretending. You share nearly everything but manage to have that small creased space which
is vital..
Biggest blessing
and a gift you are.
No gripes
I ask no more
you're that sand
No gripes
I ask no more
you're that sand
which came accidentally
on my shore.
We bonded
took our time
then you stayed forever
we became partners
in everyday crimes
soon you were
an integral part
soon you were
an integral part
of my shell and core.
You change places
but, you ain't
changing shores
not anymore.
One another's balefulness
freaky felicitousness,
mental myopia
and farsightedness...
we agnize each
other's bone
its fractures, flaws
and burthen it can carry
on.
Pint-sized life
that I've lived
not many, but I'm blest
with few, and it's fun
I swear to you.
To those few
I holler my thanks
you're the brightest speck
of sand, that rests
on my river bank
Shiniest of all
my dazzling stars **
In this era of global village there's no dearth of friends. But, when a real friend enters in the equation the whole mechanism changes..

<3 u hon !!
DeleteTrue friendship defined in its all subtelities! But many of words just bounced over head. May be only a true friend could fully understand them! :-)
ReplyDeletefor me it s a thought provoking post...
ReplyDeleteit s actually good to once a while analyze the friends we have, friends and real friends, who fits in where...
Jyoti you never know that friends could emerge from nowhere in this boundryless world:)
ReplyDelete...we can easily find a friend anywhere... it's all given... i can be your friend...you can be my friend too...though we lived in different place...& probably different time... so easy to fall into a qualification of the word 'friend'... the real question is how many of your friends can meet your standards or definition of a 'real / true friend'?... in fb we have thousands or hundreds of friends... but can you count from 'em which one is real or unreal... def it will take time sometimes forever to fully know a person... it takes time to fully give trust... it takes time to find a friend by heart, mind & soul... smiles... i enjoyed the read...
ReplyDeleteReal friends share sorrow and happiness. They create situations that make things easier for us. Their mere presence or little things they do can reduce tensions and solve problems. I will have them as a friend! Nicely Jyoti!
ReplyDeleteHank
I never got to experience such fellowship, which I have wished many time.
ReplyDeleteI liked the picture and happiness shared by them. Lovely poem Jyoti :)
I wish u get one jeevan.. :)
Deletesmiles...funny...for school right now i am doing a paper on friendship and how it develops and what we look for in a friend over the ages...there are plenty of peripheral friends...but it takes something special to be that one good friend you know....

ReplyDeleteI drop a leave a response whenever I especially enjoy a post on
ReplyDeletea site or if I have something to contribute to the discussion.
Usually it's a result of the passion displayed in the article I read. And on this article "A Friend and A Real Friend". I was actually moved enough to drop a commenta response ;) I actually do have a few questions for you if you do not mind. Could it be just me or do some of these responses look as if they are left by brain dead people? :-P And, if you are writing at other online social sites, I'd like to keep up with you.
Would you list every one of your social pages
like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?
My web page; diets that work
