Friends..

Friendship is like a spring.

It has two ends, closely attached, springing back and forth, towards each other. Sometimes the spring is hung on a fixed attachment, where one end stays and the other end is stretched away. Stretch it far enough, and the spring will break. Yes, it breaks.. and it is not a spring anymore. They are just two similar ends.

Friendship.. evolves the same way. Two people meet, make connection, sometimes even so connected they get close to each other. If one is happy, the other is happy, too. If one gets sad, the other is there to cheer and lift her up. Once.. one stays, but the other tries to leave.. somehow. After sometime.. their friendship fades away.. and gone. It is not a friendship anymore. They are just two familiar people.

Once I told a friend.. friendship is a two-way thing. The two agree on how they live together. Without it, friendship seems vague. But.. I find that love is not necessarily two-way. Love your friend enough, and you won't demand anything from him/her.

Indefinite as are the words needed to describe love.. everlasting as is the feeling you have for your loved ones.
