Shower of Friendship

First Sunday of August always brings the air of love, affection and cheers among friends and this day becomes very special not only for youths but for adults and old people also. Yes i am talking about Friendship day(FD).

It is gaining more popularity day by day among teenagers, as well as adults. This year FD has been welcomed with the showers and cool breeze which added fresh angle to the mood. Markets were full of enthusiastics on the eve of FD busy in purchasing expensive gifts for their friends and as always friendship band was getting importance above all. Despite of water logging and traffic jams in Delhi, streets were busy with people bargaining with shopkeepers, enjoying chaats and window shopping with friends.

Even the parents and the grandparents caught by this virus and with full zeal, they are celebrating this day with their loved ones. Yesterday i found that an old lady was busy in picking up gifts for her grandchildren and asking for opinion from her husband. It really amused me and take me back to my childhood when it was not that popular. At that time, college students used to celebrate this among frnds only and school kids purchased frndship band hiding from their parents. But time has changed now.Now-a-days, instead of one day, celebration goes on for a week.

But i love to celebrate this day with chocolates, a token of frndship. I share it with my friends and if it is not possible to meet, then i send it through email :). One gift i always give to my friends on FD is TRUST.

So trust your friends and believe in them because time might be wrong but friends can not be. Therefore make friends and spread joy and masti all around. Have fun.

HAPPY FRIENDSHIP DAY
