HAVING FRIENDS AND BEING TAKEN SERIOUSLY

Friendship has become a big word over the last few years especially because the internet social media offers many options to hang together and express friendship in different ways. Things have grown to such an extent that if we are not part of a group such as a WhatsApp group, it's almost like we have been ostracized or we end up being seen as an alien.

I have also been in and out of many groups and have observed the different dynamics, being inside and outside. Here I am also including my family as a friendship group with much thicker bonds. It's also notable that some families have WhatsApp groups.

In all these groups, claiming ourselves to be friends for each other and understanding the dreams and passions of the other are two different things. It's very rare to see one who understand the passionate vibrations and dreams of the other in a friendship group. Even if there is an understanding to a certain level, the seriousness with which such dreams or pursuits are considered is pretty scanty.

I have always strived to identify such individuals who take me seriously. And this pursuit will continue till my last breath. With them around me, my world expands much faster and I find myself more often in a happy space.

I am not sure, if things would be different if these were friends who met together often in person, instead of connecting often through the social media. The reality is that we find lesser and lesser time to meet in person these days.
