You have no idea what kind of relationship is the most miraculous one in the world. It has never occured to me that it would be friendship. I always thought that blood-ties is the most amazing relationship I ever know. It is definitely most precious to me, but not the most amazing one. Never has it crossed my mind that the most amazing relationship in the world is Friendship.
If there were no blood relations or ties between two person, will their relationship hold? Many a times, people come up with pharses such as "Yi ri fu qi bai ri en" and "Xue nong yu shui" or even Nan xiong nan di (These are all the phrases my limited Chinese knowledge can generate) to keep relationship gelled. I admit that there are people who make friends on very instrumental basis. Let's ignore that for a moment and look at friendship without intentions or any hidden agenda.
What holds people together when there is no blood ties or status?
Our innate love for humans' company?
I thank God for knowing people who cherish me and accept me as who I am. But kust because they accept me as who I am doesn't mean that I am going to stick to who I am and not bother about how my behaviour may lead to their discomfort. I want people to know that I cherish them. I must have high EQ! For starters, I must learn how to quit bitching. Sigh... Maybe.. Aiyah, you know I cherish you. I don't need to show. I just can't stop bitching. LOL
