In the Media – On being with old friends (Daily Pioneer – India)
The Daily Pioneer
August 3, 2014
Old friends know as we were and watched us become the people that we are. In this first-person essay that appeared in the Daily Pioneer (a newspaper in India), the author, Faizi Hashmi, talks about the pleasures of getting together with old-time friends. In the article he mentions Mark Twain, Ralph Waldo Emerson—and The Friendship Doctor (well, not in the same breath).
He writes:
The well-known writer and expert on the theme of friendship, Irene S Levine ruefully observed that only one in 12 friendships last over the course of a lifetime. However, there is a difference between voluntary and involuntary distancing of friends.

Friendship means
There is a miracle called Friendship
that dwells within the heart
and you don’t know how it happens
or when it even starts.
But the happiness it brings you and me
will always gives a special lift
and we realize that Friendship
is God’s most precious gift.
