Friendship & love quotes

Let me share a few quotes of love and friendship with you...
"True friendship, unlike love, always lasts forever."
"Love is blind, but friendship closes its eyes."
"Love is like a photo negative, it needs darkness to develop."
"Friends are like poems, you may never fully understand them, but you will always love them."
"As love feels through the heart, friendship sees through the eyes"
"The best gift in life is knowing that we have someone who loves us unconditionally and that’s our friend”
"Happiness comes from the ones i love, but its strength that comes from the ones who love me"
"Friends like quilts... give comfort when needed"

Isn't love and friendship closely related?

love

Today I want to write something about love.
I remember once in school our Catechism teacher asked us to define ‘love’. The answers given by the students were kindness, sharing, etc. The answer I gave was ‘Love is sacrifice’. At that time my mother’s love came to my mind. But now if you ask me ‘what is love’ I would say ‘It is feeling that binds two individuals’. If you give it to others you get it back. 'Sacrifice’ is ‘deep love’. These days we have too many people to love - our friends, relatives and well wishers, and time is so important to us. So isn't it better to define love as 'the time you spend for another person'.

Children

Today I was thinking of Rachel (my daughter who is two and a half years old). She talks a lot to anyone she likes. She also asks a lots of questions. I was just thinking what makes her talk so much. A lot of reasons came to my mind. Is it because someone inspired her? What inspires her? One thing is clear, she understands things very fast and if there is someone to listen to her she keeps on talking and asking questions. To strangers she talks only after getting to know the person. She needs some time to get to know a new person.

Children - They are innocent. They have nothing in their mind. They have no second thoughts. No thinking of the past. They believe that what they do is right (but I don’t know if she’s stubborn at times when she wants her way).

Everyday is a new day for them. They are always happy, free from tensions. Its good to be like them. I wish we were always like children, always smiling, always happy - To be happy and make others happy.

My favourite peom

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up
into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason
has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action---
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

Rabindranath Tagore
