If we are friends then our countries will, when our countries are friends then there is not need of weapons. So take weapon named friendship and love and conqure the world with love.

Why we need friendships?

Friendships are the gift to the man kind. The relation which we get in this world are blood related. But the only relationships which doesnot related to blood is friendship. Friendship has many forms and shapes. It is like water. If we pour the water into a jug it takes the shape of jug. if you pour the same water into a bowl it takes the shape o bowl. Sameway friendships will take a different shapes and sizes according to our heart. Friendship gives pleasure to human beings. Where there is friendship then there will not be any sorrow. When you see a child laughing you will forget your sorrows for a second, sameway when you are with a friend you forget your sorrows.

What does a Friendship group look like?

Groups and One-On-One Relationships

Friendship is all about building relationships between mentors and friends. It’s not always clear who is learning from whom! It is a process of bringing the family of God together to learn more about God’s love. Friendship groups typically meet on a weekday evening or as a Sunday morning class. Here’s how it works:

• Sessions often start in a large group with singing, sharing, praying together, and hearing a Bible lesson.
• The lesson is told by a storyteller and usually includes group participation, often in drama format.
• This is followed by one-on-one time, where mentors and friends meet to go over materials related to the Bible lesson; often this time includes crafts, activities, prayer, and memory work.
• Finally, the group gathers again for snack and social time and a closing prayer or song.

If you're thinking about starting a Friendship program, you should know that Friendship is not a ministry to people who have intellectual disabilities. Rather, it is a ministry with them. We refer to them as “friends,” not as “students.” While we teach them about the Bible and God’s love for them, they teach us about caring and compassion, and about what it means to be fellow members of God’s family.
Starting a Friendship group will enable you to reach out to people who have intellectual disabilities, their families, and their communities.

Just Friends?

Doesn't it annoy you when a couple will go out for a period of time, have differences, break up, and both decide to JUST BE FRIENDS. I mean, do people really think that they can ever go back to the movies, have play fights and hang out on a buddy level? When deep down, all they can think about is whether the other has a new boyfriend/girlfriend, and wonder if they will get back together again. I don't really think that ex-couples will ever get over an inside awkwardness and think of each other as a mate. Or if a girl is asked out by a guy, and she just wants to be friends, as if he will think of her as a friend.

When it comes to just a guy and girl starting out and staying buddies, definitely, this works for everybody. But as far as guy and gals of roughly the same generation goes, no-one is totally free of romantic inclinations that come from deeeep down, whether people are aware of it or not. Anyway, that is one aspect of friendship that Bronwyn Polson can add to her home page if she wants it. Any one is free to argue with it if they want.

True Friends

People today, in all this new world technology and thinking, have lost sight of what a true friendship is. So, in sprit of my best friend Tellie, I thought I would help the world out a little and explain what real, true friends are.
1. Friends don't have to be exactly the same. Friends have similarities but they also have their differences. They key to opening up the world of friendship is not only to expand on similarities but to accept each other's faults. Because you can't ever judge your friend.
2. Friends have to argue! No one likes to but it is necessary to be healthy. Cause if you agree on everything, either the government has expanded cloning subjects or someone isn't being true and is trying a little too hard.
3. You have to be comfortable together or else you just aren't going to click. If you feel edgy around the person then something isn't quite right.
4. Friends love unconditionally. They have there little angry moments but what's done is done and all is forgive and forget. Why let something that happened in the past ruin what happiness you could have in the future?
5. Believe in love at first sight because there is the equivalent in friendship. Some people think that you have to know someone really well to become good friends. Trust me, it's not true. If the first time you really spend time together you talk for 25 hours straight until 4:30 in the morning about some topic you thought no one else in the world understood, hun, that's real love at first sight.
These are only a few of the basics. Just remember, friends are forever. But only if you keep it that way. Don't diss your buds, love them instead. And when they drive you nuts, love them that much more for being just a little bit different and maybe just a little bit quirky!

Friendship Means.....

You know you have a friend for life when they answer the phone at one in the morning because you can't sleep and have a lot on your mind, and they don't mind talking about nothing to get your mind off everything.
They spare some time to spend with you.
When you know that if something bad happened to you they'd be there for you, no questions asked.
When you can look at them when some thing is wrong and they know it just by the look in their eyes and all they have to do is offer a hug and you feel a thousand times better.
When you know that they'd never lie to you, and would never hurt you and if they did it would only be for your betterment.
They can make you laugh when skies are the darkest, and they're there with a good movie and some popcorn when you're totally depressed.
And even if you're a thousand miles apart, it doesn't matter because what you share with this friend is so much deeper then what lies on top that distance plays no role in your friendship.
Friendship is when they push when you need it, but never too hard; and stand back when the time is right but never to far.
And the true test of friendship is if you're willing to do it all back in a heartbeat.
When you're life is so much better because you know them, and they bring out the best that lies within.

Friends Working Together

Isn't it great having friends?
What would we do without them?
But have you ever worked with friends – on a regular basis?
There are many opinions about this, some are pro and some are con.
Most of us have various circles of friends.

• We have our family which can also be considered as the first or the inner friend circle 
• Then there friends from the neighborhood
• Friends from work 
• Friends from school 
• Friends who we know through our children 
• and of course we can't forget our virtual friends. 

Can working with friends improve productivity in the office or business environment?  Most studies say "yes"
Here are a few questions that you should ask each other before committing to working together:

• How will you react to suddenly being together all the time?
• How will your roles change?
• Who will be "in charge?"
• How will you resolve conflict?
• Will you be able to separate your personal and business relationships?

I have friends who have been working together for years, successfully.

Friends Family and My Hometown

Every summer, usually for the best part of May & June I pack my bags and together with my 

Friends we travel to India Journey for a visit with family and friends.

I have been living in Delhi India for 22 years, but come summer time I become a India Journey again!

This trip however I knew ahead of time that it was going to be different.I feel really young!

I have been cooking – cleaning – doing laundry etc…oh yes this is a working vacation!

We also have played Poker – watched movies with the girls and gone on short but nice walks.  Spending time with Friends & Family is good.
