What is Friendship?? 
Friendship is not something of the marketplace. Friendship is one of those rare things which belong to the temple and not to the shop. But you are not aware of that kind of friendship, you will have to learn it.Friendship is a great art. Love has a natural instinct behind it; friendship has no natural instinct behind it. Friendship is something conscious; love is unconscious.

I only tend to see this girls for one or twice every year, even if i don't see them everyday 
 i know from the very start of our friendship they've been always real to me. 
cant wait to see you again girls.. ^_^
