Friendship... and Understanding!
In my observation, the root cause of many misunderstandings between friends these days is the lack of one crucial element: understanding.
If that understanding exists, even ordinary moments become unforgettable scenes — full of fun, emotion, and meaning.
Two such beautiful and powerful memories from my college life stand as small but strong examples of what real understanding among friends looks like.

Episode 1: Laughter on the Wall — and the Understanding Below
Selvaraj and David — my closest friends.
From college days till today, we’ve remained the same.
Despite multiple warnings and advice from others,
in our final year of college, we decided to move out of the college hostel and rent a house.
It was a lovely house in Sasi Nagar, near Sivakasi.
Seven students from the ECE department and three of us from CSE — ten of us shared the place.
For us, who were once like caged parrots in the hostel,
this house felt like wings had been given to us — and we were finally free to fly.
There was a compound wall around the house.
We often sat on the short wall, chatting endlessly, telling stories, and laughing together.
One day, while we were sitting on that wall,
our ECE friends were having a serious conversation.
In the middle of that silence, I cracked a silly joke.
Selva and David couldn’t hold back their laughter.
One of the friends turned with a sharp look and said,
“We’re having a serious conversation here… you guys just don’t get it!”
Without a word, I jumped down from the wall.
And within a second — four more feet landed beside mine!
The three of us looked at each other and walked away with a smile.
Two hours later…
That friend’s serious talk faded away.
I had moved on.
But the fact that my friends walked away with me, without even asking why —
that was our understanding.
That moment… revealed it all.

Episode 2: A-Section Class — The Opposition Walkout!
In our 8th semester, classes were sparse.
Students from both A and B sections used to attend together.
On one such day, an A-section professor was taking class.
He looked at us and said,
“This is an A-section class… others may stay if they want.”
A few minutes later, he repeated the same line again.
We let it slide.
But when he said it for the third time,
Selva stood up — no hesitation.
Even before he turned around, David and I were already on our feet.
All three of us walked out at the same time —
just like opposition leaders making a strong statement!
Seeing us, even the girls from Section B walked out.
That tiny scene… unforgettable. And pure mass. 🔥😀

If such understanding exists between friends,
life would be free of unnecessary conflicts —
and flow sweetly, peacefully, and beautifully.
Happy Friendship Day!
With understanding,
Raja. K
