While our families and partners are our support system at times of crisis, our close friends are the ones with whom we can be our true self without any inhibitions. They are the ones who know all our flaws and yet they love us. Be it spending time with them or discussing the highs and lows of our lives, true friends are always there for us. No wonder then that having such friends in our life is no less than a blessing and we actually have a special occasion to express our gratitude towards them. Friendship Day is observed on the first Sunday of August each year and so, this year it will be celebrated on August 2. It’s a day to honour and celebrate the beautiful bond we share with our close friends.
This year with the Coronavirus pandemic, we are forced to stay safe by being indoors or maintaining social distancing but it doesn’t mean that we should stay emotionally distant with our friends and well-wishers. To help you make this Friendship Day special for your friends, here we share some lovely wishes, messages, popular quotes and images which beautifully describe the different shades of this special relationship. You can share these with your friends or even put them up as Facebook and Whatsapp status this Friendship Day. Read on
