Dei... I was not saying that everyone will...@Praba:<br />Dei... I was not saying that everyone will lose all their close friendships and that no one will miss anyone if he/she stop contacting them. In fact, I wanted to add a few more content saying 'of course, there will be some close friendship that will last till eternity'.<br /><br />If I don't know you any better, I would have felt insulted when you said you stumbled when asked about best friend's name and you had to extract 3 names... but I am sure you only struggled for the last two names ;)<br /><br />I too have felt this... friendships that I thought would never sink, had sunk... even after I did everything in my power to save it... And of course, some of the friendship I thought is under risk (friends getting married, settling in US, etc.) are still green as ever...<br /><br />All I wanted to say is losing some close friendship is inevitable and forming/getting new friendships too...<br /><br />@Sindu:<br />As for the school friends, you have missed the most important point. During school time everyone is less selfish, less cunning, less acting on survival-of-the-fittest priinciples which everyone gains later on. Those friendships are formed when we were innocent and not corrupted by the life.<br /><br />My school friends whom I thought I would never lose, I voluntarily lost, simply because their character/lifestyle had changed a lot and not of my liking... And yes, those are the innocent memories and moments I can always cherish and be happy about...<br /><br />@[Praba & Sindu]:<br />Thank you so much for your comments.. made me feel like I was not gone at all...Amudhanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06517557838074500370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33208539.post-20802090485333110882012-02-05T17:29:17.546+05:302012-02-05T17:29:17.546+05:30@Dobby: It is French!

Such a long break because of a few bad posts? <br /><br /> Yet another beautiful reflection of life from you. I agree with everything you said. In my theory, every single person we are supposed to meet and know in life is already determined and somehow through some means we will meet them and know them. So, no phase is ever going to be really lonely for long for most people. <br /><br /> As for the school friend being the best theory, I feel it might be because these are the friends you shared the most carefree times of life with. Things we do change with each life stage - the conversations we have, the places we go to, the things we do - all these change with every life stage. And school stage is one where we can do some of the best things in life that will stay in the memory longest. So inevitably the people we meet at this stage and do these things with grow more fonder in the mind.Sindujahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10270647713638071705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33208539.post-89304846484512293732012-02-05T13:58:37.035+05:302012-02-05T13:58:37.035+05:30Recently I had been wondering.

I kept telling myself that most probably, their own life will catch on, and they wouldn't bother about you for long.<br /><br />Those few precious friends I had in my college are non-existent today. I don't even want to meet them again for it, there is no communication and everybody is selfishly moving on with their life.<br /><br />When my nephews asked me three of my best friends' name, I stumbled for a minute. Had to extract 3 names from those who are still in contact. And many who were close even a year before, never even cam e to my mind.<br /><br />Time is a force we can't fathom.<br /><br />You touched upon an interesting topic, especially people nearing their thirties would've seen the phases of life already and would understand much better.<br /><br />Then, what language is "C'est la vie"?Dobby Severus Salazarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02716356627351003762noreply@blogger.com
