Friendship Forever part 2 -
Not many of you read my Friendship Forever http://hilda.SearchWarp.com/swa569445-Friendship-Forever-The-Three-Of-Us.htm
that I wrote some time ago and you may do so at your disposal. I have many friends, first of all and I can say that different status of friends develop different kinds of friendships.
Some wrote in my album like : "May our friendship last forever. Wherever you may be, remember I am always your friend." Another one wrote : " A friend in need is a friend indeed. " Then another one wrote " Time is gold, time is precious " and one wrote " Plain Sailing "
Nobody can predict the future, so far. Of course, the batch of 12 years old pupils scattered and studied in different schools thereafter.
In 1971, I met some new friends in the Convent School where I attended and we got along well. These two friends are the characters I mentioned in the above linked article. We, as I described, still occasionally meet up . In fact, I just spent a dinner with Anne last Saturday. Ella couldn't make it as she has a large extended family to entertain but she promised to join us another time.
Our friendship stays the way it has been. So warm and close. we are like sisters and share even some of the skeletons in the closet - the good, the bad and the ugly.
You don't have to have a bundle of friends to build up a friendship that you can have a heart-to-heart talk, over a drink or something. One or two buddies will be best to create that quality of friendship. Remember : more is not better. And our friendship has been around since 40 years ago.
I have friendship with that friendly lady boss at the salon. Every time I see her, she smiles and she knows what I want and I feel sorry for her blood pressure and overweight problem. We can keep talking until my hair is done.
This morning, after reading the newspaper, my husband said to me " If you stay alone, you will die of heart attack. " I haven't the time to read the article yet. I guess it could be true. When Neil Sedaka in red, sings " Solitaire " at age 72 on stage, I think it somehow rings a bell. "No man is an island " sounds true.

Hi Christofer, thanks for the comment. Some friendship brings sunshine to your life if we know how to appreciate it and if it doesn't then which means that sort of friendship is just a fair-weather friendship.
But as far as friendship is concerned, it really has got some 'click' between one another. Do they have something in common ? No one can simply develop friendship if they don't come to terms with the basic compatibility so on.
I do believe man is not an island - but that doesn't mean you need many friends either. A few good and solid friends are perfect! Like the way you wrote and the message you related to us.
Now I'm headed to the earlier article. Thanks for the link.So sweet of you to do so, Gray Mare.
Thanks for your time and comment.
