When you think winning a friend could be that easy as sharing a seat with a complete stranger, or can be bought from somewhere then we could go on believing that we will never feel incomplete, lonely, or weary with the idea that we can find it anywhere and anytime we need it. We could easily appreciate every people we meet and eventually accepting some to become part of our lives for the sake of companionship. I was defining friendship at its simplest form, a mediocre kind of relationship but not until I came up with an astounding realization from this kind of bond I found from my College friends. I had this thought since I was in high school that the kind of friendship everyone deserves to have is the kind where one must never feel down and that kind of having a person who will always be by your side literally or figuratively whenever someone tries to go against you.

As soon as the scorching heat of this year’s summer season started to blaze, me and my family immediately planned to spend a weekend vacation in the summer capital of the Philippines once again.

You may have thought that this world would be easy and fulfilling once the past have already defined you. It is when you arrived at a point in your life still questioning yourself every night if you have taken the right path or chosen the right decisions.

What makes a reason good enough to convince someone? What makes a thought become valid to others?
