#568 The intricate threads of FRIENDSHIP

 The intricate threads of friendship

Some friendships are unexpected, and you get to meet those people, in your life during adversities, something that you can never think of, but life has different ways of surprising us. When it brings adversities, it also brings gifts, but we’re so immersed in grief that we barely notice the gifts lying there right in front of our eyes.

It’s easy to befriend others when the situations are favorable or you’re at your best, but during adversities, you’ve to put in extra effort to reach others. That’s when God sends such friends to your rescue because he feels that you need to be heard. These people had once been in your situation before and realized how much someone’s kindness changed their life. Now, they are doing their part in your life, amidst all the challenges in their lives.

These friendships are like intricate threads because they’ve not been born out of expectations. I regard them as intricate because they could’ve been easily broken but that bond stays with you silently even when you don’t talk with or text them every day, but when you do they’re there to listen to your stories and comfort you as much as possible, without any judgment. They might drop some messages just to check in with you when they’re not calling you.

Life has been too challenging for me lately. No sooner did I recover from one unfortunate incident in my life, life threw one more curveball at me. Sometimes, I feel too overwhelmed trying to balance myself before falling down or getting hit by such curveballs. During such dark hours, I saw those friends throwing light at the end of the tunnel, to show me the way to come out of it.

I knew I had to come out of that infinite tunnel that life placed me in, but their little acts of kindness made all the difference. They need not be present physically, but I felt their presence in the form of their genuine concern.  

Those are some of the unseen ties that drove me home and made me believe in the goodness of this world.
