In life one meets and makes many friends. Some remain acquaintances with whom we share pleasantries. Childhood friends mature and remain for life or are not traceable.

Marriage too is about friendship and so is rearing kids. Ever felt that sudden desire to call your best friend to tell him/her about the new child in the family?

I had the greatest opportunity this week in which I really understood what it meant to remember my friends. I witness the dynasty of a 41 year old friendship come to an end because of death.
