friendship


it is an alluring thing, isn't it?

and i think it is definitely the most overrated thing that ever existed in this world.

oh, maybe the second most overrated thing.

the MOST overrated thing is true love.

friendship - the ship that will never sink. well TITANIC was not supposed to sink, and i know that because i watched that damn movie 7 times so i know it is NOT supposed to sink. But it did, didnt it?

i am someone who is especially lousy atkeeping friendships alive because i hardly do any emailing (if im away) or smsing (if im around).

i have alot of pseudo-friendships, i call it.

that is we hang out - either for clubbing, for chilling, for shopping (albeit very seldom cos i like to shop alone) or for eating (which is very seldom since im not a big fan of food).

so we celebrate big occasions like CNY, XMAS or even any other public holidays that we feel like celebrating.

but there isnt any true friendships i think.

i, for one, value each and every friend i have. i dont meet up often. i might send u a belated birthday greeting instead of greeting you at 12 midnight sharp. i might not sms u often, if at all.

but at any time at all, should you need help of any kind. i'll be most willing and happy to help with means and ways that i can.

people sometimes say they cant be bothered to make new friends because it is an effort.

i make new friends all the time. i think thats because i havent any true ones to begin with so i am always looking.

well thats not entirely true because i do have a handful (not too many but just a handful) of friends whom i will classify them as true because they have let me into their world and let me experience what is called a friendship.

my thinking and thoughts on this issue is very raw at the moment so i shall stop here and will continue once my thoughts are more stable and i'll be able to write in a less incoherent manner.
