I was reminded of the same for it was again my b’day time..16th dec. :)
And must say, it was a lovely day….thanks to sweet friends, whether here at XIMB or the old school & college friends. Right from the b’day cake (thanks to Sona & Arun), to the sweet phone calls and lovely cards & gifts..it was lots of fun.
The best part of the b’days possibly is….the calls of the old friends that remind you of those lovely days, those wonderful memories ….and of course, the new friends with whom you celebrate and share the present wonderful moments. (The calls of my friends were evenly spread frm 00:10 hrs to 23:21 hrs, and interestingly the last ones to call were my MBA friends, showcasing their expertise in the habit of ‘Somehow in Time’ :) )
It was a day well spent.…in the morning, went to the Lingaraj Temple to seek blessings of Lord Shiva and then loads of masti..dining out, gossiping, chatting n all. Though had an exam the other day.…and so, opening the books was a prerequisite..but that was after enough of hungama during the day time.
Well, counting age with number of friends would be a little exaggeration….but yeah had a nice feeling to have such a sweet mix of friends….someone right from Std. I….to someone from a diff. country…to the new friends, thanks to XIMB.
Hope to always cherish the existing bonds of friendship….and have an enlarged list of close friends on each 16th dec.!

i have a few poems on friendship.. hope you like and enjoy them :D
A friend is like a flower,
a rose to be exact,
Or maybe like a brand new gate
that never comes unlatched.
A friend is like an owl,
both beautiful and wise.
Or perhaps a friend is like a ghost,
whose spirit never dies.
A friend is like a heart that goes
strong until the end.
Where would we be in this world
if we didn't have a friend.
another one :
you'r my friend and that is true,
but the gift was given from me to you.
we went thru moments that were good and bad,
even moments that were happy and sad.
you suported me when i was in tears,
we stuck together when we were in fear,
its really sad that it had to be this way,
but it has reached its very last day.
miles away cant keep us apart,
'cause you'll always be in my heart.
and the last one :
Friends
Friends smile at you.
They like your face.
They want to be with you
Any old place.
Friends have fun with you.
Friends share
They?re glad when you?re happy---
When you?re sad, they care.
If you?re a friend
Then you care, too.
That?s why your friends
Are glad you?re you!!!
and yet another one :
My Friend when I think of you.
I think of all that we've been through.
All the times we argue and fight,
I know deep inside that it isn't right.
I, then feel bad and alot of pain.
It feels like I've fallen from the sky like the rain.
I love you dear friend with all of my heart.
But now that you're gone I've fallen apart.
I'm getting better as the days go by.
I wish sometimes this was all a big lie.
I pray to you every night.
It's like you're my fire, a burning light.
My dear friend, I miss you alot.
I still wonder why you were put in that spot.
I know you're in a place much better than here.
Watching and helping me with all of my fear.
Our friendship my dear friend,
we will have to the end.
Friends til the end is what we will be.
Someday we'll be together,
together you and me.
and yet another one :
Special Friend Poems
"Portrait of a Friend"
I can't give solutions to all of life's problems, doubts,
or fears. But I can listen to you, and together we will
search for answers.
I can't change your past with all it's heartache and pain,
nor the future with its untold stories.
But I can be there now when you need me to care.
I can't keep your feet from stumbling.
I can only offer my hand that you may grasp it and not fall.
Your joys, triumphs, successes, and happiness are not mine;
Yet I can share in your laughter.
Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge;
I can only support you, encourage you,
and help you when you ask.
I can't prevent you from falling away from friendship,
from your values, from me.
I can only pray for you, talk to you and wait for you.
I can't give you boundaries which I have determined for you,
But I can give you the room to change, room to grow,
room to be yourself.
I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting,
But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces
and put them back in place.
I can't tell you who you are.
I can only love you and be your friend.
