When young I had few best friends in whom I could confide my inner feelings. With passage of time we went to different schools and parted our ways. There came a time when I had no best friend. As luck would have it, I made God Almighty my best friend. Whenever I wanted to discuss something, I used to discuss it with God all the time. Remaining truthful in life, I could hear the sweet small inner voice of my soul atman that always guided me on right path.
Remaining in communion with God Almighty for longer periods of time was not a problem for me since 15 years of age. Until I realized god, realized self at 37 years of age I had no best friend. Even the concept of best friend did not exist in my time. As life would have it, I have two young granddaughters, one in USA. When she came to visit me in India for the first time she was quite young. After some days see called for my hand and tied a string that contained words best friend.
And she started calling me my best friend. The other granddaughter developed the same habit. As long as she remained with me she used to call me my best friend. Now her mother is located to another town but the bondage of best friend still exists. In present times, I have two best friends in this world… my two young granddaughters. I respect their sentiments. Though I am not bodily attached to anyone, remaining a best friend to my granddaughters is very meaningful to them.
In absence of earthly attachments, God Almighty was always our best friend in need.
