SOUL: Stories of ‘Ur Life Part-1: The Unlockdown’

Friend in need is a friend indeed’ is a proverb heard by all but applied by few amongst friends groups. The emphasis of any given friends group is not just having fun but to support each other at times of great need and problems. This emphasis is an attachment; when the attachment becomes feelings which in turn become an emotion borne out of love and care then the friends in that group don’t stay as friends per se but become family. Family is important to give a name, virtues, and identity to a person but friends help in defining the personality and characteristics value to a person. This is the reason why there is a proverb that a person is known by the friends he or she keeps’ and true friends will not only act support but also show a person the right path towards life. A person is like a bridge with two sides and in order to survive through life, that person needs a family on one side and friends on the other. A person is incomplete in the absence of the other.
