On
August 2nd, my baby was asked by his teacher, to bring this friendship band to school,
so that they can celebrate the day together, but what he actually did was a bit
devilish. He came back home wearing a friendship band, which he’d snatch
from a girl, while the one we bought for him to tie on his friend’s wrist, rested
safely in his pencil box.
I’ve
been reminiscing the way we used to have fun on this day, and to tell you the
truth, it was a matter of honor to get the highest number of friendship band,
the same way like it was to get the highest number of red roses on the Valentine’s
day (let me share a little secret with you, I got none-the red rose, and always
wished some curse to befall on the idiot boys of my class, for now when I collar-handled
them, they gave the excuse of being afraid of me).
Anyway,
coming back to this friendship day, being a pearl smith, I had and have a very
few wonderful-lest(they gonna kill me) friends, so you know.
Now,
when my baby celebrated friendship day in his school, I thought it to be very
childish to wish any of my friends, and wouldn’t have, if those beautiful
messages from my all-the-more-beautiful-hearted friends didn’t have blinked on
my cell phone.
So,
keeping aside my grown-up self, and making use of this gorgeous day, because no
other day can serve the purpose more appropriately than this one, to
acknowledge the treasured presence of you, my friends, I wish you a Happy
Friendship day.
Thanking
you, who have been with me ever since I carried Milton water bottle to school
and ate from your lunch boxes (though you never wanted to share,
cunning-miser-you), let me say it once more, that you’re loved, now and always.
Also to those, whom I’ve newly acquired as friends on Facebook and Blogger, though
we’ve never met but you’d help and guided me to develop as a writer, thanks to you
all.
Happy
Friendship day to all my subscribers, however less in number, you make me feel
special, and to those beautiful souls who found my page, A Letter To You, worth
liking, and my writings, worth reading.
Thank
you all. You’re precious, and your presence in my life makes it even more beautiful.
Happy Friendship Day!

Grammar Nazis, Peace… please, disregard any grammatical error, if committed. It’s
already 2:30 A.M, and I’m damn sleepy to type correctly, moreover edit. Focus
on my intentions rather than on mistakes.
