Few years back … all the nasty people were my so called friends. They would be my friend till they get their work done or till they get another friend.
In Rome … i got my first n last BEST friend. At that time i never realised how true her friendship was. She used to tell me … when i will lose her then only will i realise – what i lost !! And truely it is so … i’m still looking or say searching for her. Didn’t find her on facebook either.
I actually misplaced her address …. then i went to South Africa – got her last letter … she thought i didn’t get her letters – so she stopped writing !!
Her name Mao Mao Cheng … she was from China. Her mother worked for the FAO (Food n Agricultural Organisation). Her father was a painter. Don’t know how to contact her … God knows where she is now !
i sometime wonder … is she looking for me too ?
After Mao Mao …. i never got a true friend. Do i miss something in life … accept her – nothing much really !! Now a days most of my “Friends” are either younger to me or older than me. i find it easier to maintain the friendship relation with them only.
I finished my graduation years ago … n have friends (Piyali n Shilpi) who’re in 1st year now … they both are unique (in their own way) n are full of life. Piyali … even though she is quite young but still have the sense of maturity – but that doesn’t make her sound or look over aged … she is lovely n lively – have good sense of dressing too.
Whereas Shilpi … is totally like a bollywood masala movie … endless entertainment !! Recently … i went to our second house after a long time – she said “Mani (my pet name) didi – why didn’t you come all these days … you know everyday seems to be so big … so big as an Ostrich” !! i just couldn’t stop laughing.
I also have a friend who is not of my age yet not so younger than me. She is good too … we have a nice bonding.
One thing that’s common between me n Kamal is that … we both are confussed n deppressed most of the time. when we go for shopping or for a walk … we always have a great time – we more or less have same thoughts and thinkings. Except … she is a person who can do anything for her friends and by anything she means absolutely anything.
For me it’s difficult to think it that way … but yes i can always be there when my friends want to pour their heart out. Listen to their problems the whole day … comfort them !! Suggest them to do this or that … but physically i do that much as it is possible for me …
We have differences n things in common too … over all we’re good friends 🙂
makes me miss my mates .. I wrote something like that tooo.. yeah its true some of the people who we were so good with have sort of gone apart , I miss them toooo and i hope i seem them soon and meet up with them..
Loved the memories A funny thing happened to mea few years aog i was on my old school website and contacted a junior in india i needed a few things.. he sent me those and from then on We are so close he calls me Brother and then he came ot uk to visit me and now is here studying , his mum-dad came and stayed with me and its hard to beleive we are so close to each other now …

Hi Sharmila, lovely colors in the flower. Your words gave me the opportunity to think about old friends and current ones. Thank you. And thanks for stopping by my blog.
Heard what you had to say about yourself and about your friends.Liked your honesty and wish sincerely that you get in touch with Mao Mao soon.
Also the close-up of Lantana with it’s beautiful colours tells me that you are a shutter-bug too.
Impressive!
Whenever you can… would love if you stop by at my blogs too.
