Time doesn't define friendship, we do.

You meet different sort of people during different phase of you life.

You go through school and then settle down for your work.

Some of them you call  "friends".
Very few, "best friend".
And other you call as faint memory, because you don't like them much.

With time everything flip their position, priorities changes. 

I personally like having few close friends vs hundreds of casual friends. With time, I start losing my friends one by one. May be due to distance or conflicts. But as I grow older, perceptive of living changes as well as it increases fights in between my close ones. Friends who plays very important role in my life switch their sides, but it's ok. 

Earlier you don't have any aim or goals to fulfill, but as you grow older and older, lots of  things comes in your life and your priorities changes. Priorities like your career, your partner, your daily chores and unaccomplished goals.

Distance is more as well as you start feeling like a stranger. New lifestyle and very less intercation with friends kills your bond.

You always recalls your old days and memories. The way you enjoy you day with your close friends.

It's very common friends "come and go", but don't feel bad. This is normal. This is life.

Don't blame time for any situation.

Turning point 

"Hey, don't worry. 'We'll always be best friend".

Those were the last words my best friend said to me before I released her form hug.

I was about to fly to Gujarat for my further studies. I can't forget that day. I cried badly in front of her before I left, because I know it turns our life into different phases. I lose all my hope.
And to be honest,  I wasn't sure if we'd have the time to chat as we usually do!

People always invest more time with their work and in those who are (physically) there for them.
It's not her fault.

All of us need someone by our side to share our lives with while we grow.
Right?

Most of the time I saw our photos and re- read our chats.
So with tears and cracked heart, I trudged back home with no hope.

Sad and upset face I entered my house, and I got surprise visit!

Guess who?!

OMG Shalu, it's been two years already and you look better than I saw you!

Whole scenario changes again.
We cried again.
Hell! We meet again.
Lots of talk and fights,
But still
I love you my best friend.

It was then I realized, it's totally up to us and our mutual love and understanding. Our willingness to shift our priorities and to keep our friendship strong.

Take action and don't blame it on time. It shows wether the spark of friendship will keep burning or die.

Take an initiative and feel happy as well as satisfied.
 Don't put any blame on anyone!

You are the one who defines your friendship mate.
