It seems I have a lot of things to do... but things happen the whole day today is something that i should keep it as a lesson for me and here, i would like to share it with my valued readers...
Friends...We got so many friend right..? We got all type of friends.. from the range of wealthy to the not so wealthy... which one is better to be friends with..?Back in those days in primary school whereby my x is about the same level as i am, we used to meet up and share almost everything... even we have break off, we still can meet up to share some ideas and issues.. No problems in keep in touch even she is with someone else..
A few years ago, she got married with one man which already establish and have his own business not so long after that, he got the dato' title.. Automatically my friend are becoming datin already.. Which I'm happy for her too for the good things that she got..
As times goes by, the busyness of her activities plus with her environment surrounded by most of wealthy people makes her life changes a bit... and of course some of my appointment with her being neglected without any response.. Sms no reply, call sometimes no pick up... which for me, its ok.. I have to understand her activities even i don't even know what is exactly her activities is..
And today.. As I was invited to her house for the wedding of her brother, i manage to go down to her hometown just to fulfill the invitation from my friend.. Driving alone from KL takes me about 1 hour plus to reach to the destination.. (Not a problem aite...?) And i love driving so that no matters for me at all...
Reach her home around 2pm.. send a sms coz call is not being pick up.. (must be bz maa... kenduri kawin la katakan...) So i shake hand with some of her relatives... and straight away go for the meal... Sit down under a tree and enjoying my meal...
Cut short.. Sms that i have arrived and she did reply to ask me to have for the food.. okla... Cut short some more.. Just about to go back, then I saw her.. with the warm old friend relationship, i took the opportunity to talk with her about 30 sec.. then she ask me not to go yet..
While waiting, i took the opportunity to talk to her mother and father (since my dad got some relationship with them..) and after waiting for about 30 minutes, i decided to go back to kl.. During that 30 minutes i saw her shaking hand and greeting peoples that i can say same level with her now and took her about more than 5 minutes for every person that came... Send a few sms but no reply.. still ok for me... then last sms i just say 'thanks'.. then i go off without seeing her... (even she asked me to wait previously..) And until this moment, no reply sms or even call from her.. Which is still ok for me.. used to it so many times...
Another cases of the day..
Back in uni, a lots of friend we met and we decide to whom we want to be closed.. Around 7pm today i receive a sms from my male friend which we used to study together.. but now he is already a rich man which previously he is not..... income monthly maybe reach about 100k.. The sms is just very simple.. just want to ask for a drinks.. And for me, i got no issues... i love to keep in touch with friends..
So cut short again, we agreed to meet up around 11pm at one of the lepak place in kl.. and i went there with my another friends (which also studied at the same uni).. And both of us know this already rich man very well since we stay next to each other during our matriculation.
After waiting about 3 hours, a few sms sent to him but none get replied... so we decided to call him and by that time we are already not at that shop... After a few calls then we manage to get thru him.. and he said he is already in that shop that we plan earlier... So my friend and i rush back to that particular shop because don't want him to wait for us...
When we reach the shop, we saw him sitting at one long table with his friends.. male and female... all vouge females around him and all wealthy men around him.. driving 5 series beemer and fairlady, is not a match for us that driving malaysian cars.. so my friend and i decide to sit on the other table coz we don't want to disturb them.. and while waiting for his sms or call to ask about us.. guess what? no sms no call until he left the shop while my friend and i watch him walk away to his car.. He might not see us because he is surrounded by his new friends.. And still no sms or calls from him until this moment which my friend and i already back in office with a scar in our heart.. we wait so long just to maintain the relationship with him.. and he is the one who asking us to have drinks with him in the first place.. A two guys heart hurts.. i can see the pain in my friends eyes which he immediately sleeping after reach my office... "Bro.. sorry for you.. I know its even harder for you coz he is your roommate previously..."
Things to be thinking of...
1. How do you measure a value of your friendship?
2. Is it based on monetary or is it years of friendship?
3. Are you treating your friends equally? Why?
4. Who should you value more?
5. Friends when you have nothing and friends when you have so many things... Which one is better?
6. Friends who support you with material or friends who support you using their time... which one is more expensive? Which one you can buy?
7. And so many thing to be thinking of...
* This apply to your partner as well...This experience may seems unfair... But i believe most of people experience this situation..
Be prepared my valued reader... we might be the person who is rich enough or we might be the person who have wealthy friends...
But not all person are like that.... I dedicate this section to my dear valued friend which is now my boss and also my business partner...

Lu pun ada beemer, alphard, gtr14 dan macam macam lagi... tapi lu still tak lupa kengkawan... lu tolong gua masa gua susah... lu tolong gua untuk gua jadi senang macam lu... tak macam ada sesetengah orang yang cuma janji kosong..

Yang lain lain...Semoga berjaya dalam kehidupan... Hablum minan nas itu penting.. Jadi jagalah ia kerana ia adalah sebahagian dari kebahagiaan kita...
The words that escape a friend's mouth are "I'll be there when you say you need me" but the words that are unheard from a true friend's heart are "I'll be there... whether you say you need me or not."
Sometimes in life, you find a special friend. Someone who changes your life just by being part of it. Someone who makes you laugh until you can't stop. Someone who makes you believe that there really is good in the world. Someone who convinces you that there really is an unlocked door just waiting for you to open it. This is forever friendship. When you're down and the world seems dark and empty, your forever friend lifts you up in spirit and makes that dark and empty world suddenly seem bright and full. Your forever friend gets you through the hard times, the sad times an the confused times. If you turn and walk away, your forever friend follows. If you lose your way, your forever friend guides you and cheers you on. Your forever friend hold your hand and tells you that everything is going to be okay. And if you find such a friend, you feel happy and complete because you need not worry. You have a forever friend, and forever has no end.
Another month. Another year.
Another smile another tear.
Another winter and another summer too
But there can never be another you.
So... which one is better? Wealthy or not? its you to decide... Your own friends... Not mine..
