As we go on, we remember,
All the times we had together,
And, as our lives change, come whatever,
We will still be friends forever...
I associate this song with memories of various friends I've come across in life..it still brings a tear to my eye when ever I listen to it. "Friends forever"- catchy phrase but do you believe in it always? Does such a thing even exist? The events occurring of late are starting to make me believe that such a thing might just exist in theory. When does a friendship end? When do reunions become just another formality? When do we no longer have common jokes to share and common things to laugh at? When do awkward silences begin to fill the conversations we once used to share? When do you have to start thinking twice before mentioning something to each other?
Things would be a lot simpler if friendships were like relationships. Either the feeling is there or it is not there. There is a boundary - a limit. Maybe that’s why break –ups make a lot of sense. Though painful in the beginning, in the long run, they, somehow, make a lot of sense.
Where do you draw a line in friendship? How do you define your space? Why does a friendship end? There might be many reasons: distance, ego, failure, betrayal, hatred, jealousy, but it pains the most when time gives a friendship, a natural death.
