Everyday, one person says to another, "how are you doing?"
But what are they really trying to say?
Personal response is one thing, but when one person is trying to say something as simple as, "hello", or "how are you", they are probably trying to express deeper feelings about one another.
Like a kid on a school yard, the pressure to tell that special girl that he would like to spend more time with her;
it is difficult, so what we say is, "how are you".
It's hard to express our feelings, so we try to let others guess,
through minute things, hoping that that someone would notice.
So, "how are you" actually means "I want to talk to you".
What it is, I believe, is friendship.
If only it were all so simple.
If only all shyness were rid.
Wouldn't that be easier?
To just go up to your friend and give him/her a hug,
isn't it better than hinting something else to him/her?
One who does something for nothing out of the kindness of one's heart,
that's a display of friendship.
That is the most important thing you can have in life, people to turn to when you have a problem and need support.
Trustworthy friendship is a valuable thing.
Problems do occur within friendships, sometimes, deeper then you could think of, but when you can go up to that person,
and talk to them about what it is thats bothering you,
that is true friendship.
A FRIEND'S LETTER:
by anonymous
Misconception on life is a dream,
departed along this reality stream.
Fire of devious laughs of death,
life is not as what it may seem.
My friend, you have shown me the way,
the sun filled sky and the timeless day.
If only you could know the feelings i had;
but sadly the timing of deaths toll to pay.
I was lost, then I was found
in a bind that seemed to go round.
Now, I am lost without your light.
You still lay there without a sound.
Our time together was great,
as if opening the heavenly gate.
Now, you will return to this grace
because of untimely fate.
My time comes and I'm gone,
but you still linger around me.
Death seperates us, but please remember this:
the time we had will be cherished with bliss.
Labels: so my night will soon turn to dawn; and I will lose another night's sleep.
