This page is dedicated to my best friend:

 
Most people come into our lives and quickly go. But some move our souls. They awaken us to new understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom. They make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon. They stay in our lives for a while, leave footprints on our hearts and we are never, ever the same.

Every now and then we find a special "someone" who never lets us down... who understands it all, reaches out each time we fall. You've been such a person. However far you go, a part of you will never ever go away, your heart will stay. I wish and hope that life would just be kind to such a noble and gentle mind. If you ever lost your way think about me and you would find me beside you to show you the path.

Someone like you is one to whom I can pour out all the contents of my heart, chaff and grain together, knowing that the gentlest of hands will take and sift it, keep what is worth keeping and, with the breath of kindness,  blow the rest away.

Do you remember the first time we met? From the moment I met you I knew that I could lean upon you, depend upon you. It seemed as though we had always been friends... You've helped me through my bad times when I never thought I could endure.  For as long as I live, you will always hold a place inside of me. Your presence will always be a very important part of my life and I look forward to it. Any time you find yourself in distress, let me know and you would find me beside you. Even if I am not able to take you out of the trouble I would try my best to show you the path. If I can't even show you the path, I would be there with you till the end so that (God forbid) some misfortune befalls you, the same should also fall on me and I can be with you till the end.
Love, lost moments, injury and illness all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. Safe and comfortable but dull and utterly pointless. Had there been only happiness in life, no one would heve ever enjoyed the the true essence of happiness. Happiness is so beautiful because we know that sorrow is so painful.

The people you meet affect your life. The successes and downfalls that you experience can create who you are, and the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones.
If someone hurts you, betrays you or breaks your heart, do not get hurt. They have actually helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to whom you open your heart to.

If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and open your heart and eyes to little things.

Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again. Remember, time is precious, and each day as it passes leaves you with its memories. But you can never re-live a day.

Talk to some one you have never talked to before. Open your heart to whom you feel you can trust. Feel proud of who you are.

Let yourself fall in love, break free and set your sights high. Hold your head up because you have every right to. Do not let anything or anyone make you feel guilty for your actions. Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, no one else will believe in you. Create your own life and then go out and live it.
Refusal and rejection always hurts. It hurts even more if it comes from the person is your loved one and particularly so when there seems to be no apparent reason for getting hurt. A small bye at the end of the day means a lot and often you look forward for those few moments of togetherness and it hurts a lot if you are deprived of it for reasons unknown. Often, you hurt others without ever thinking how it feels to the other person. In friendship please remember that even though you two are different, it is important that you value the other person's sentiments and try not to hurt him particularly when he is trying to share some of his creations with you which ultimately went down the drain (along with his setiments and feelings) after  your refusal.
