The more you grow the less you make friends!

Is it true? Is it what you go through as well?

I feel I am too busy in my own professional and social life. I meet people, talk to them, seat with them, have a cup of tea but are they really friends of mine? Do I really enjoy with them or is it what money gets deposited at the end of the work does make me happy?

I am active (or may be that's what I feel - could be completely wrong) in my friend's circle. I do text, Facebook, mail, call or meet them but how many more friends are made after I left studying? I don't remember a single. Why do I remember people only when I feel he or she could be of my work or just to forward someone's resume or to refer them a client? I have been in contacts with my readers (on professional platform). However, how many of them are my friends?

You have family, love, you make your family and you make less friends. You are now in the vicious circle of earning money and growing big. Where's the time to roam around for a movie, cricket or a trip without knowing the destination? 

I was observing my phone calls. I start with "Hi" or "Hello" and end with "Bye" without a long pause and keep repeating "Say, what else?" knowing that there is nothing to talk. This shows the conversations now are less friendly and more professional. There is a chain of work pending. One starts and the pending bulb gives alarm for another. 

In this situation, I try my level best to keep my generosity, respect to others and more importantly a smile. A pressure and stress can make you rude. I beware of it.

I wish I continue in good touch with my friends and with my readers too!
