Of friends and effort..

Are friends something that just happen or are they acquired through constant effort and endeavour?

There can be quite a few definitions of friends around, depending on your personal values.

Friends can be people who you enjoy company with, hang out with, look to when you are bored, and confide in.

Friends can be your insignificant sidekicks who you look to when you need help, when you are in deep shit, or when you think you can make use of them.

Friends can be a blessing, just as they can be a disappointment.


In the ideal world, friends would exist even without any effort. Sadly though, our world is not ideal, and far from it at that.

It's weird, but I have come to realise that respect and intimacy are inversely related.

The closer that someone is to you, the more likely you are to take them for granted.


Just something Drew, Alvin and I talked about over Teh 'O' Peng at our favourite supper hangout.

Friends and supper, always a great combination... =)
