Individuality
Friendship - 18
Friendships find distance and time
no real obstacles

Well! This statement or appropriately put… this proverb can be explained in two ways.

Which one is right is to be decided by you. Both the descriptions, which I am going to give, are the two sides of the same coin. So! I feel you can accept both of them.

I will prefer to start with the description, which I believe in! It's not that I do not find other one believing! It's just that, when compared I like this one first!

I feel that a friend in true friendship do not find distance and time an obstacle. He/She can be there to meet a friend and that too on time even if He/She is far away from the friend. When one friend is in need the other one turns out to be a friend indeed ( in … deed ).

Now… the other side of the coin. Friends in true friendship do not find time and distance a real obstacle. In the sense, they can stay away from each other for a long time and still be together. They do not feel the need to meet regularly to keep their friendship fresh as ever.

Thus -
Whatever side it may be… remember it is the same coin and it's not just a coin, it's a treasure!
