Why Friendship Day?

Friendship Day 




By nature human beings are Social Animals. The importance of society is felt since ages by man. There are certain relations like Parents, Relatives which occur in one’s life not by choice but by destiny. Friendship is one relation that happens by one’s choice and will. A Friend /”Dost” is somebody who can be in one’s life because of any reason – be it personal or professional, but, is an integral part of one’s living. As emotions and feelings are intrinsic to human nature, to have somebody relieve them, and share them is the best feeling on earth. To honor the presence of friend in one’s life the US congress declared a proclamation in 1935, according to which every First Sunday of the month of august is celebrated world-wide as the “friendship day”.

Between Love and Friendship


During some time of our lives, it would be necessary to look for a true friend whom we could trust and share our thoughts with. Making good friends around you is of a lot importance in your life. But, making your friendship last a lifetime is somewhat difficult to deal with and a lot of efforts should be needed to maintain it. When you want to pick true friends, it is significant to find for people who can be trusted and deserving to be called as “true friends”.

What's Life without Friends?



What is life without friends? Empty right? Well, it definitely is. Who could afford to live without friends anyway? Walking alone, watching the movies alone, doing things alone worst, talking alone. Perhaps the latter could seem quite absurd as you might see it. But what's life without friends anyway?

Friends Change the Way You Live Your Life

                             

Would you agree with it? Do friends could really change the way we live our lives? Well as of me, I do agree that friends could really change our lives. What makes me think so? Perhaps you would be asking that, but you just can't simply change my thoughts. Let's say friends could make your life better or worse depending on how they treat you or how you handle them and treat them. Perhaps it would be like a boomerang effect, what you do to others will all come back at you.


One reason why I have this in mind is because of the lesson I've learned in the past few years when I have this friend of mine. At  first, I never thought we'd became friends since I'm the type of person who usually gets his mouth shut unless one dares to talk with me. Not that I'm not something to be scared of, just that I'm of a quiet person. Then came that friend, talk with and approach me. Til then that day, we became friends, and I've noticed a lot of changes upon me. I became friendly, a bit talkative (LOL) and I've developed a sense of confidence around me. Therefore that's why I could say that friends really could change our lives.

But it also depends upon which type of friend you have. So be careful in choosing one, if you do want your life to be as ideal as mine.

Can We Really Live Without Friends?


Can we really live without friends? Would life still be easy even if you are living alone? Well, we can still live without them, but on the other hand, it might not be easy though. As life without friends is like living on an island with no one in sight except a vast stretch of sand and of course, yourself. Life without friends is rather boring and uninteresting. Therefore it would be wise if we look for a friend to be with us in our life.

Come Connect




27th Feb. 2011 most wonderful day of my life when we all friends unit together and connect together for proving that we all (Bs III Mass Comm.) are the best. One month before Come Connect (27th Feb.) our C.R came to class n told us about the event Come Connect and she ordered all of us (whole class) that we must have to unit together and worked hard together for the best performance of our class.
And from the following day we had started practicing about our comedy drama ‘Height Of Over Acting’ in which I had to perform as Punjabi Jutt type hero and in another tragic drama ‘Peet Ka Yaan Koi Phal Na Mila’ in which I had to play a role of father and the whole month we had practiced a lot and enjoyed a lot and finally the day came named ‘Come Connect’ 27th Feb. 2011. Our tragic drama had second number and all of us were very nervous to go to stage and face such a huge crowd but after our first performance we had gained our confidence and after 10 minutes we had our next comedy drama, everybody almost rushing back stage for the preparation n costumes for comedy drama and when our drama started people enjoyed a lot and also all of us perform best on the stage then the rehearsals. These two dramas were so wonderful that we had won all the awards. Thus this the most wonderful day of my life the hall was very good, food was very good and everybody got gift for visiting Come Connect.

Enjoy your life at every moment



Once a fisherman was sitting near seashore, under the shadow of a tree smoking his beedi. Suddenly a rich businessman passing by approached him and enquired as to why he was sitting under a tree smoking and not working. To this the poor fisherman replied that he had caught enough fishes for the day.
Hearing this the rich man got angry and said: Why don’t you catch more fishes instead of sitting in shadow wasting your time?
Fisherman asked: What would I do by catching more fishes?
Businessman: You could catch more fishes, sell them and earn more money, and buy a bigger boat.
Fisherman: What would I do then?
Businessman: You could go fishing in deep waters and catch even more fishes and earn even more money.
Fisherman: What would I do then?
Businessman: You could buy many boats and employ many people to work for you and earn even more money.
Fisherman: What would I do then?
Businessman: You could become a rich businessman like me.
Fisherman: What would I do then?
Businessman: You could then enjoy your life peacefully.
Fisherman: What do you think I’m doing right now?
MORAL – You don’t need to wait for tomorrow to be happy and enjoy your life. You don’t even need to be more rich, more powerful to enjoy life. LIFE is at this moment, enjoy it fully.
As some great men have said “My riches consist not in extent of my possessions but in the fewness of my wants”.

What to do wen u love someone more than ur life and just got pains in returns?



There are people who can walk away from you.

And hear me when I tell you this: When people can walk away from you: let them walk!

I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone.

When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left.

People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay.

LET THEM GO!

And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person, it just means that their part in the story is over. And you've got to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead.

You've got to know when it's dead.

You've got to know when it's over.
Let me tell you something, I've got the gift of goodbye - It's the tenth spiritual gift. I believe in goodbye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful, and I know whatever God means for me to have, He'll give it to me. And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it. Stop begging people to stay.

LET THEM GO!
If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong to you and was never intended for your life, then you need to...

LET THEM GO!

If you are holding on to past hurts and pains...

LET THEM GO!

If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth...

LET THEM GO!

If someone has angered you...

LET THEM GO!

If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge...

LET THEM GO!

If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction...

LET THEM GO!

If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents...

LET THEM GO!

If you have a bad attitude...

LET THEM GO!

If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better...

LET THEM GO!

If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship.......

LET THEM GO!

If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help themselves...

LET THEM GO!

If you're feeling depressed and stressed...

LET THEM GO!

Get Right or Get Left, think about it, and then...

LET THEM GO!

strong friendship



To be a friend takes a lot of strength. There will be times when you will question why you ever got involved with this person. Times like these are the true test of friendship. It is easy to be friends when you're sharing good times and fun. However, when the friendship is challenged you may be tempted to get up and leave. This is when the integrity of the friendship is challenged. You may feel afraid to trust and share your deepest secrets. Friendship is not for the weak of heart. Real friendship takes strength.

Friendship is an in-depth, relaxed relationship!


 

It is an in-depth relationship combining trust, support, communication, loyalty, understanding, empathy, and intimacy.
These are certainly aspects of life that all of us crave.
Being able to trust and relax with your friend is a big part of friendship.
Remember when you were young and went with a friend to her grandma's for the week-end. It was fun but when you got home, home was wonderful. Your feeling was "I'm home. I can relax now."
That's what a friendship should be.
You go out into the world and do your best. You have your ups and downs, your problems and triumphs, your fun and tribulations. You charm and you perform.
Then you come "home" to a friend. You can relax, put up your feet; you are relieved. If you still have to be charming and/or performing, it's not a relief.
Friendship is a comfy situation like home. You get home, kick off your shoes, relax and sigh, "Ahh, home."

JOURNEY OF MIDTERM


The mad dash to digest several weeks worth of material and regurgitate it out as something usable, also known as the Mid-Term Exam.
This is my fifth semester at JUW and my fifth round of midterms.  I got out easy in all of the last semesters. The midterms were never so difficult. While I would have thought that this semester wouldn’t be very difficult, I stood in correct! because in this semester we have to study more than the previous semesters. We did not have notes only we had lectures and practical works, so there was no any chance to bunk the class.
This week was very much busy. I don’t want this week again in my life, before this week I got horrible news that my favorite teacher Miss Batool was leaving university without any suitable reason and we all were very annoyed about our future and of course our subjects also because Miss Batool was self grooming all of us.
This week every night I studied my notes several times and did not have the assurity that “will I remember all this stuff on my examination time”? But when I got my question paper in my hand it seemed like somebody was dictating me all the stuff and after paper I went happily out of the examination room.
I worked hard a lot and I am sure that I will pass my midterm result with flying colours. Today was my last paper n I am happy that I will sleep without any tension.
