I'm not a friendly person. No really, I'm not. I am told I'm a good friend but its the process of making one that I find tedious. As my best friend says, I just don't like people (well most of them anyways). My ex boss went to the extent of admitting that I often scared people away. And I agree with all of them. I'm happy to be who I am.
Which is why its weird that wherever I have gone in life, people (the important ones) have searched me out and found me interesting enough to be friends with me. And most of the times, whether it was college or the British Council course, the friends I made in the first week are the friends I still have around.
I would love to believe its my magnetic personality or my unparalleled charm. But chances are, I just have always been very lucky.
Its heartening that there are people earnest enough to try to peel back your layers and still stick around after they find what's underneath.

Well Said... Friendship isn't about whom you have known the longest... It's about who came, and never left your side...
You know Mori, people who think like us (or rather feel like us) are rarer to find than a dishonest Meluhan!
