Share A Laugh With Your Friends

Friends are the greatest gift from God! Whether it's childhood friends or work friends, we need them beside us all the time. What is more refreshing than sharing a hearty laughter or a hilarious joke with friends? It breaks all monotony and fills us with vital energy. August 5th is celebrated as Friendship Day this year and it's a great day to enjoy a nice time with friends and colleagues.

Invite all your friends this Friendship Day and enjoy a feast with your favorite food and drink. Crack jokes with friends and jazz up their spirits. Go for a movie together, eat out at your favorite restaurant, go for a long drive, play basketball, go camping or have a beach party. Whatever you do, don't forget to smile and laugh with friends. Remember, a smile costs nothing, yet lasts forever!

Recollect all those sweet days spent together and the weird things that you had done! Remember all those funny school or college days and share a laugh. Pull each other's legs and indulge in some fun activities like water games, bowling, word searches, puzzles, crafts and so on. Going out with friends is a great stress buster and is the best way to bring more laughter into your life. The effects of laughter are contagious and is most beneficial to shower you with friendly feelings. Whether it's real or fake, smile with your friends and watch its positive effects!

Quotes and Ideas To Patch Up Broken Friendships

Breaking up with a close friend is always disastrous! We lose peace of mind and sleep if a friendship ends in a bitter quarrel or a mere misunderstanding. However, there's always room for restoring that friendship which you once shared. While there may be friends who might not forgive easily, most will be too willing to mend the broken ties.

Here's how to patch up with an estranged friend:

1) The best way to revive friendships is by calling up friends. Just gather courage and call up your friend and say that you are missing him/her and want this friendship to stay forever. If you cannot call up your friend, meet up with them somewhere and tell them that their friendship is precious to you.

2) Take another friend into strict confidence and seek his help. Then allow him to patch up disputes with your friend. This works good and helps to break the ice between alienated friends.

3) Use every single opportunity to bump with your friends who have separated from you. If you know their favorite hangouts, pubs or coffee shops, drop in there to meet up with them. Tell the waiter or bartender to serve your friend's favorite coffee or drink, and add a note to it. If a music is being played, tell the musician to play your friend's favorite song, which will remind him of those good old times!

4) If nothing of the above works, simply send a nice text message or a beautiful card with a sweet friendship message. No doubt, your friend will start missing you and revive that friendship once again!

Here are some famous quotes which you can send your friends:

* "Never shall i forget the days i spent with you . continue to be my friend, as you will always find me yours."
-Ludwig Van Beethoven

* "Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light."
- Helen Keller

* "The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious, it is the true source of art, science, and friendship."
- Albert Einstein

* "Friendship that flows from the heart cannot be frozen by adversity, as the water that flows from the spring cannot congeal in winter."
- James Fenimore Cooper

* "When true friends meet in adverse hour;
'Tis like a sunbeam through a shower.
A watery way an instant seen,
The darkly closing clouds between."
- Sir Walter Scott
