Friends

Friends....

They love you,

but they are not your lover

They care for you,

but they are not from your family

They are ready to share your pain,

but they are not in your blood relation.

They are........FRIENDS! !!!!

True friend...

Scolds like a DAD...

Cares like a MOM...

Teases like a SISTER...

Irritates like a BROTHER...

And finally loves U more than a LOVER...

To all my Dear friends, thank you for companying me through certain stages of my life.
