They say good friends are the rare jewels of life,
difficult to find and impossible to replace!!
I say, do we really search and find friends,
or people come from unknown direction and some become friend.

some will become enemy, some will go away
and some will leave the planet before us.
We don’t search and find them,
they just come before and we recongine them.
They disappear and we recall them.
