We inherit our relatives by birth;friends ,we earn by choice.May be the very reason a handful of friends count much more than a cent relatives.
A feeling of love,moments of caring,stupid fights,shoulders to cry,to be together in pain,an ear to listen,a voice to comfort,a bond to cherish,a shoulder for support.A relation that knows no boundaries,one that supersedes all dissimilarities.That's what FRIENDSHIP is all about.
Today,as we look back upon this wonderful relationship,glimpses of many a memorable moments fly by our eyes.Times we were flat broke,and our pals came to our rescue,bunked classes just to watch stupid movies, going to theater just after the first paper of the end sem,accepted calls in the middle of the night,a big party for a very small achievement and many more...
Well, right now I still hv two more years to enjoy all this before leaving my college but ya the memories will always be there to cherish.As the famous quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson goes:"It is one of the blessings of old friends that u can afford to be stupid with them."
Such is the value of true friends that somebody once remarked,"Love is rarer than genius itself.And friendship, rarer than love."

Its true that u just cant live without them but lets be practical here how many of them will you stay in contact with after two years (assuming that the information provided by you in the post is true) and even if you stay in touch with some of them but for how much time one year or two year at max.I am not saying that only because of the fact that friends are not forever we shouldnot have friends but the fact is that ususally the friendship we seek and have is just a give and take relationship between two individuals its a disguise an illusion ,but yes offcourse friendship without self interest is one of the rare and beautiful things in life
and it is these friends we always cherish no matter where we are they are always with us.
I do not wish to treat friendships daintily, but with the roughest courage. When they are real, they are not glass threads or frost-work, but the solidest thing we know.
accidentaly these are also the words of Ralph Waldo Emerson.
Loved this post. I wonder how I had missed it. :)
Especially love the quote about love and friendship. Have put that in my post.
