Always be there for your friend!!!


“Sacrificing your happiness for the happiness of your friend is by far, the truest type of friendship.”

How many of us do something or go somewhere just for the sake of our friends? Most of us do these kinds of things happily and some of us will do under the huge pressure and some of us don’t even care for doing these things. How can you call yourself a friend if you can’t do anything for your friend?

Like others I do have my friends and some of them are my best friends. Unlike some people I always try to keep my friends happy and satisfied. Most of the time I am the one to make sacrifices and compromises because I feel that most important thing in our life is our friends. Without friends we are nothing. I have seen people who lost their friends forever and left out alone in this world, friendless.

To be a good friend you do not need the best qualities and characters, also you do not have any rules and regulations to follow. Simply you need to be with your friend whenever they need you the most, good times or bad. For me, the biggest thing that matters in friendship is that you have to be selfless. If you only think about you, yourself, your happiness and don’t care about friend, then your friendship will be drowned in the ocean of your selfishness. Friendship is all about giving and forgiving rather than getting and forgetting.


Sometimes the little things you do for your friend will mean a lot for him/her. This is the fact that I learnt recently. It is not that I don’t do things for the sake of my friends but this incident was memorable. There was food fiesta in my friend’s college and she had been inviting 3 of us since the day programme was fixed. And that very day neither of us three showed interest to attend the fiesta and we were busy making the excuses for not going there. She’s been calling us asking when we will be there and we were terrorized with her every call. Then we had a little discussion within ourselves and came to the conclusion that we will go there and meet her up. And yes, we did the same, just for the sake of our friend. We went and met her, gave a small gift and talked for a while. That was the moment I saw the real happiness in her eyes, in her face, in her voice and in her heart.

If you see such happiness in your friend’s eye, it is obvious that you will be happy too. Aristotle had said that “What is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies.”

The one who is selfish will be left alone at last and I have seen those kinds of people. Sometimes bad people are good for us because seeing them we can learn new lesson that will keep us aware of repeating the mistakes they did. We learn from our own deeds, sometimes our good deeds and sometimes from our mistakes. This time I learnt that no matter how hard it is for you, you should be there for your friend. The best rule of friendship is to keep your heart a little softer than your head.

I am sunshine to my own WORLD!!

The life I'm living now is given to me by my mother but it is solely mine. No one has right to push their nose into my life. I have been following my head and heart till now and will follow throughout my life. I learn something through books or quotes written by someone else and sometimes I learn with my own experiences and that may be good as well as bad experiences. Whatever comes to my life, I should learn to accept it and move on with my  life. And i guess I am pretty much successful in doing so because I do not just hold on to my past and keep worrying about it rather I take lessons from my previous deeds, right or wrong; I try not to hold grudges against anyone and try not to judge anyone.

Everyday I step down on my pain and sadness and problems and try to smile and cheer up and live my life happily. Ashley Smith said,"Life is full of beauty. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams." Life is beautiful, the only thing that matters is how you are going to live it. You can always learn from your mistakes and make the upcoming days of your life even more beautiful and fruitful or you can just hold on to your past and keep worrying about it till it destroys your future too.
"What is the meaning of life? To be happy and useful." - Tenzin Gyatso, 14th Dalai Lama
I always try to be happy and content in my life. Everyday when I get out of my bed, I pray that the following day would be wonderful and every night before going  to bed I take the day as yet another good day and useful day as everyday I learn something new. I always try to look the bright side of everything rather than the dark side. Why should I even bother to know the dark side when I am already happy seeing the bright side. This may be because my blood group is B+, so I am positive about almost everything.


By looking at life and seeing not only the past, but also the present and future, I realize that in order to make progress and remain happy, I need to overcome my every challenges and obstacles in my way. As it is quoted in Bhagvad Geeta, "j hunchha ramrai ko lagi hunchha" (everything that happens, happens for good), we need not worry about anything because everything has its own good reason.


Some where I had read "Life is like a coin. You can spend it any way you wish, but you only spend it once." There is not any guarantee of anything like reincarnation or the afterlife, whatever you want to do you have to do it in this life. I am living my life beautifully and of course i will make my life worthwhile. You can do any thing you want with your life because life is in your hands whether you make it or break it.

My first step towards the long journey!!

I believe in myself rather than believing and following what others say. I have always done what my heart told me to do. And now I start to write my own blog instead of reading others' blog. Writing is one of my favorite time pass. Its been ages since I started writing down my feelings on the piece of paper and then keep it to myself but now I wanted to share it to other people as well. So that I can get feedback and comments from others and I can improve my writing.
I guess I will never get tired of reading books and writing down. Though I have never had literature as my major subject in schools and college, I have my own kind of interest in literature. Nepali or English, I have read quite many books that have always inspired me to write my own. I have tried a lot many times to show my writings to others but never have enough courage to bring my writings in front of others. I have always loved my creations but never knew how others will feel about my writing.
As Lao tzu had quoted "A journey of thousand miles must begin with the single step.", I also took this small step into the big world of blogging. There are some people who have been an inspiration for me to writing a blog. In the beginning I have not a piece of idea what blog is all about, later I started knowing about the blog, what to write and why to write. I do not promise that I will write the same kind of article or poem or any random piece of writings but I can promise that I will continue writing.
