Fevicol ka mazbut jod ... ?

Old Pencils are meant to be thrown away.
...
Old Cobwebs are meant to be blown away.
....
Old Friends are meant to Fade away from our memories ... ????
...

*******************************
Scene 1:

A bunch of Engineering rookies who spend the best part of their learning years together. When they finally walk into the real world, they plan to stay in touch forever. As the months roll by, old promises are kept. A mail a day, keeps the memories alive.

A Forward a day somehow replaces the tradition.

A few good souls try to keep the group together with sentimental mails. Trying to revive old memories. Urging all to post.

The group final dies a natural death.

*******************************

Scene 2:

At a later stage of life, enroute higher studies, two such good souls come together with a bunch of other Engineers. This Band of Engineers, is destined to stay together considering the level of maturity the group shows. It seems History wont repeat. .. Alas ...
A few months after college, the few good men try to keep the group alive. Constant email, phone calls and even planned meetings. But destiny has its own say. The group dissolves as earlier.

************************************
Some disturbing questions ? ?
------------------------------

Is there anything such as life-long Friendship ?

Should an attempt even be made to try and keep things together, or let people live their life in peace, since they dont want to be disturbed ?

Why do the good souls get so frustrated that, in the end, they are the farthest from the entire group ? Did they try too hard for their own good ?

******************

If you have answers to these questions .. I desperately need them ...
