What's the value of friendship?

Today, I was at Fabby's house studying. Whole afternoon chioing. What a day manz. Though it was tiring and stressful, it was also fun. All of us including Hairy Dog ( you know who I mean ) were joking our way as we studied and rest. It lifted up my spirit and its a nice feeling. Luckily, I have 2 buddies like them. What's the value of frienship? To some ppl, they think that friendship is nothing. Some ppl would treat it as nothing. I've seen such cases b4. There was once a gal whom I've not contacted for a long time told me this, "Friends would change, and I dont see a point keeping in contact with one another....". Its very hurting to hear such words from her. I hate this kind of attitude. And some ppl juz don't like to take the initiative to call you up or so to keep in contact with you. The worst part that I hate the most is when ppl say this, " Guys should always take the initiative...". I believe this is crap. What century are we living in now? Come on dude... wake up! Sucks man! Oh well, what to do? Well, to me, I feel that friendship is priceless. It is something that cannot be bought. Without friendship, there would be more setbacks and obstacles in our path, no one to comefort us when we need to and have to. They are there for us when we need them. But then of course, you have to choose the right ppl in life. Haha. I thank those of you who have stepped into my life, for lifting up my spirits and giving me encouragement, especially my close buddies. For those selfish ppl out there, one advice to ya, cherish the ppl around you, for we have only this one life, and we will not see each other again. Cheers!
