Having a good friend with whom we can share our feelings and problems will make
our world happy and worth living. Understanding, compassion and love are some of
the qualities a friend shows. They are the people who say silently, through
their words or actions, that we are special and important. We should thank all
our dear friends and tell them how much their support and friendship means to
us. Most of the time, we don't find or take advantage of an opportunity to
express our gratitude, or to tell them how important they are. Friendship Day is
the celebration of this wonderful bonding between two hearts and a very good
chance to say, "Hey, I value your friendship and wouldn't be the person I am
without it".
Every year, the first Sunday in the month of August is celebrated for the
beautiful bond between two people; friendship. The idea of honoring friendship
and friends began in the year 1935 in the United States. As the popularity and
the true reason behind the celebration spread, Friendship Day became an
international observation, and more and more countries started observing this
day. The first Sunday of August is celebrated in most countries as a dedication
of this day to friends all over the world. Each person has many other friends,
so Friendship Day is a celebration for everyone on earth.
This year, Friendship Day will be celebrated on the 4th.
To all my PCLinuxOS Forum Friends, I value your friendship!
