Buddies..

                     

Hi, folks in my last engagement Buddy I had narrated my own experience of how much I needed a buddy in my life. I had narrated how a friend can be of tremendous support in happy and bad times.

Here I wish to highlight the value of a Friend and Friendship and quote a few inspiring collection of friendship quotes :

·         “Friends are the most valuable assets a person can possess. Friendships require reciprocity –     of admiration, respect and emotional trust.”

·        “Friends could be partners, family members, co-workers, and people whom we have known since our childhood. Even pets we love can be our friends.”

·         “Few other things have a huge impact on happiness as friends.”

·         “Friendship is the greatest power in the world.”

·         “You have the greatest treasure if you have found a true friend.”

·         “When you are in trouble, friendship will help as a weapon.”

·         “If you lose your path in life, friendship will help you by becoming a book of knowledge.”        

·         “If you are stuck in a foul plan, friendship will take you out by acting as your mind.”

·         “If ever you feel lonely, it will support you by acting as a guide.”

·         “If you want to earn something in this world, don’t earn money to earn friendship.”

·         “And remember, if friendship is your weakness or making good friends is your weakness, then you are the most powerful person in the world.”

·         “An old and true friendship is like pension which remains with you even after retirement.”

·         “A single rose can be my garden… a single friend, my world.”
– Leo Buscaglia

Friendship may be of three types according to Greek philosopher Aristotle:

1)      Friendship of Utility: Those friends who are useful to your life or bring your convenience– may be a friend who enrolls in the same swimming club as yours and helps you in learning to swim.

2)     Friendship of Pleasure: These friends help you stay light-hearted. You meet them for drinks, gossip, or a game of cards- but things never get too serious.

3)     Friendship of the Good: These come along a few times in the course of your life span and are people who will talk to you about everything.

“In friendship for good, you value who that friend actually is, strengths and weaknesses alike and there is a sufficient amount of trust between the two, that the relationship’s quality and depth outshine those of other types of friendship” – Suzzane D White.

                 

                 



Mirza Ghalib the great shayar or poet describes a friend in a  beautiful couplet and in these two lines he has given the gist of  friendship:

              “ Sharat Lagee Thi Khushi Ko, Ek Alfaaz Mein Likhne Ki

                 Log Kitaab Dhoondhte Rahe, Hamne Dost Likh Diya.”

 

It means: There was a bet to write happiness in one word,

                                People searched in books, I wrote “ Friend”.

 

So, “friendship is whether you’re celebrating life or happen to experience an unexpected bump, you can always rely on your friends to be there for you. A listening ear, a shoulder to cry on, or finding the silver lining in a less than ideal situation.”

Ageing Gracefully

                            Ageing Gracefully " Ageing gracefully " may  mean  embracing the natural signs of  ageing  without visiting a certified plastic surgeon along the way. Ageing is inescapable, but it is also a glorious thing, you have done the work, you have learned many of life’s lessons now you can sit back and enjoy life without all that youthful angst and uncertainty. People who are over 60 think they’re old. I’ve heard it said, “You’re only as old as you think you are if you didn’t know when you were born”. In my opinion, 60 is the golden age. ‘Getting older doesn’t mean decline or despair. It’s a reason for celebration! There are plenty of ways we can age with grace, beauty, and joy. We can experience more happiness, more success, and get even better with age and experience.   I’ve heard stories of 101-year-old runners, 98-year-old yoga instructors, and plenty of other people who reinvent themselves, launch new careers and lead businesses well into their
