Buddies?
I was just browsing through my friend's photos through friendster. I saw some of them had found new friends (which they called them their gang or their buddies) and some of them are still hanging around with the good old gang (which they called their gang or their buddies). How do you actually group your friend as your gang or even your buddies? When their "brainwaves" flow the same way as you do? When they are there for you when you are down? or When they never ever hurt you before? So does that means that when one day they were not around when you are down or hurt they will no longer by your buddies? Have you ever wonder how long is the path of friendship with each friend is?
We meet different people at different stage of our lives. Who are the very first person you call your buddy or your gang? Is the person still your buddy? I met a lot of people so far in my life and as most people do I had a lot of buddies, but how far will this buddy follow you through? I still remember my first buddy which I met when I was in primary school but we are no longer in contact now. I don't even know how she is doing now, probably when we met on the road we won't even regonise each other. We could even be labeled as strangers now. Thus she is no longer my buddy or is she still my buddy once? Is it because we are just passerby in our life? If that is true then I think I have way too many passerbys in mine. I really envy my brother, he is still sticking around with his primary school buddies and they remember each other birthday and still stick through thick and thin. For me, I think these are true buddies, one that will stick with you till old and reminisce the good old times.
I came to realize that its not easy to maintain a friendship nevertheless to call someone your buddy. How many of you can be so selfless and not think of yourself first before your friend? There might be, but it might not be a 2 way traffic. Its a long and winding journey, we meet and we say goodbyes. But 1 day.........1 day you will meet someone who is selfless, that hold your hand and walk the rest of this long journey with you. Maybe you will ask me, when would you know that this person is the one? I would say, when you are old, really really old and when its time you return to paradise......you will know who is the one and these memories you will bring with you. But just treat everybody with a true heart. You won't want to regret at this moment that you had not done enough for the person which you finally called your buddy...........
This post might be a bit sad or pessimistic, its just my thought at the current moment.....
