On Friendship day !!

On Friendship day 

It's said that when you're successful, everyone around you becomes your friend. Nevertheless, even if you only know him superficially, he'll find some way to get you to reveal how close you were to him.

In another situation, even your closest friend may not recognise you if you are unsuccessful. Your status and your relationships are actually co-related.  Isn't that true? Why did those hard words on a friendship day come to my mind. I am not trying to depress those reading my article by sharing a fact of life. I am sure that you share a genuine friendship like Amitabh Bacchan and Dharmendra had in the movie "Sholey."

Just recall the time when Shree Ratan Tata believed he had no friends in the world. I was reading an old article on Shree Ratan Tata from a speech he gave at the Automotive Hall of Fame in which he talked about his experiences in the automotive industry and his enthusiasm for introducing the first Indian automobile, the great success of  Indica. He told the press that "When the car came out, he suddenly felt that he didn't have a friend in the world and that all the warnings that people had given him were probably going to come true," After many years, Shree Tata made the acquaintance of a young man named Shantanu Naidu, and their friendship gained notoriety under the moniker "magnate and a millennial." They do everything together these days, from getting haircuts to watching movies. Although their "intergenerational friendship" may be unique, I am certain that it would provide both of them a great level of satisfaction.

If a great businessman findsit difficult to make friends, then I presume that  it has somethingother than a person’s status. This only proves that friendship has nothing to do with success or failure, or being rich or poor.

A whatsapp message from a rare friend wishing you a "happy friendship day" shouldn't be mistaken for a true friendship; instead, it just serves as a reminder of the kind of social connection that person wants to develop with you. So, what exactly is friendship, and where can one find it? I won’t say that you would get a friend like "Shree Krishna and Sudama" as an example of a wonderful friendship. It can be challenging to find a genuine friend who appreciates your kindness on a deeper level than the surface of your life, but trust me, a wonderful friend is always nearby, but we don't acknowledge his connection. He is constantly in your vicinity, but you never truly notice him. He praises your work in life. Have you ever noticed how often he knocks on your door without being acknowledged? We either thought he was never the kind of friend we were looking for, or we were always too busy living our lives to value his companionship. We actually create a portrait of the type of friend we are. We imagine the perfect friend in our minds, and then we look for friends who fit those standards. We want a friend who is successful. We desire friends who will be there for us and assist us when we are in need, but we never intend to assist him when he is in need.

It's never too late to recognise a true friendship, all you need to do is feel it deep in your heart, just as you did in elementary school when you never conducted a friend-screening procedure. According to an old proverb that still holds true in today's society, a friend in need is a friend indeed. Happy Friendship Day.
