Vitamin F (Friends)

Why do I have variety of friends who are all so different in character? How can I get along with them all? I think each one helps to bring out the “different” part of me.  With one of them, I am polite, and with another I joke.  I sit down and talk about serious matters with one. With another I laugh a lot. I listen to one friend’s problem, and then I listen to another one’s advice.

My friends are like pieces of jigsaw puzzle.  When completed, they form a treasure box.  A treasure of friends! They are my friends who understand me better than I understand myself.

They are my friends who support me all the time, both in good times and in bad, in sickness and health. In my joys and in my sorrows, they are beautiful angels sent from above.

Real age doctors tell us, that friends are good for our health.  Dr Oz calls them vitamin F (for friends) and counts the benefits of friends as essential to our well being.  Research shows that people in strong social circles have less risk of depression and terminal strokes.

If you enjoy Vitamin F constantly you can be upto 30 years younger than your real age.  The warmth of friendship stops stress and even  in your most intense moments, it decreases the chance of a cardiac arrest or stoke by 50 %  I am happy to have a stock of vitamin F.

In summary, we should value our friends and keep in touch with them.  We should try to see the funny side of things and laugh together and pray for each other.

This month while we celebrate “Friendship Day” I am glad for all my friends, who are so much part of my life, I cannot imagine my life without them. I send my love to all, and pray for each one of them for the difference they have made in my life. 

I do not wait for friendship day to remember and thank each one of them, but they are always in my life, and I am happy to have a good stock of vitamin F in my life.

Happy Friendship Day to all my Friends! I love you!
