FOR MY FRIENDS

While a few of my friends have managed to retain the friends they had since their childhood, many have lost touch with friends they, at one time of the their lives, could not live without. 
Like many of my friends, sometimes I too feel that I am not lucky in matters of friendship, but at other moments, again like my friends, when I reminisce about the good times I have had in life, I cannot but thank God that he gave me the chance to have the friendships I have had. 

At the age of 50, friendship stories strike you as a strong link to your past. This is an age when you have time to dwell on what has gone by, what was put in the back burner as you got busy with other priorities in life and then as you take the time travel back into your past, you suddenly find yourself standing in the middle of a green field looking at the stupid smile of your old  friend and the same sense of die hard camaraderie engulfs you. 

At 50, you have gone through various phases in your life. You have seen days when the world seems a dirty place and friendship is the longest four letter word. You have seen days when you are down in the dumps, looking for some comfort from somewhere and someone just turns their back on you. But then you have also had days when your friend has bear hugged you and said without saying that he would stand by you come what may. 

Friends are like the family heirloom that keeps appreciating in value and emotional appeal with the passage of time. 

Thank God for giving me the friends I have.
To celebrate the spirit of friendship I am going to post songs on friendship
The top five in my list are:

Diye Jalte Hain:  



Yeh Dosti Hum Nahi Chodenge:


O Yara Dildara mera Dil Karta



Yaari Hai Iman meri:



Yaar Anmulle

FRIENDSHIP
