House Entering Ceremony of a friend

Who has built one room for us.

A friend invited for his house entering ceremony today and being a working day, everyone was little hesitant, but then I motivated everyone to go for couple of hours and join him in the celebration. He was delighted to see us and especially the ladies - they wanted to be also part of this unplanned meet. Our friend is the Secretary of our PG group and he is made accountable to plan every year's meet, which has not been possible since last few years, because many are staying outside states and have not been able to come because of their kid's education. So this served as a special meet between a small group of us.

A relationship built 21 years back and continuing till now has a special meaning - no formal invitation needed - be it whatever big ceremony, just a call or whatsapp message suffices - and the best part is others start calling each other and plan everything else to be there.

By the time we reached the rituals were done and we visited all the rooms before going for the lunch.

And what a sweet surprise for us - he not only built a nice house, but built this special room for us in the top floor - we were always in search of a place for our week-end parties, and the top floor gives the perfect privacy. Our friend is not very rich, and it's his life time savings invested in this house and even has taken a big loan that he plans to clear in the next decade. But he has a big heart for us - this room key will be in leverage of all friends, who need it any time. We have asked him to fit an AC and he has agreed to put one and also keep all utensils that will be needed for cooking.

And in absence of our meet, the ladies loved each other's company after a long time, with a promise to meet soon.

Last two years have been very restrictive on all of us because of our kids going through their most important milestone of career. From here, they will be more responsible and will have to decide their professional career path, and that frees up most of us this year. I am sure, we will have frequent get together and travels starting this year - after all, the last phase of life needs to have some fun. We are a generation, who has always compromised, so once the kids settle in their career path, we should plan to de-congest ourselves and travel is the best medicine.

Do you go to your friends house without any planning ? That's our generation - always invited with pleasure.

It was good to go to celebrate him, a new house is a great step! And he's a good guy for having reserved a room for everyone!

We desperately needed a room nearby and since this is the first house built by a friend, he took care. One more friend is in process of building his house, and he also plans to have a separate room for us. As we get older, we need to meet often, and a place saves a lot of burden.

This is so emotional 😊. 21 years relationship!? Still thriving?! You guys really have good hearts and love for each other. Congratulations to your friend for his new house

Yes, we are that generation - who always thrive for each other - unfortunately, this generation does not understand the old school values.

Yay! quite the nice gathering and very nice place, too! I am still debating if I want to live in a condo, or have my own land and house later on. I mean, I do dream of being more rural, but the reality is I'm just a city guy.. all my life. 😎🤙

City is good as long as you are fit and fine, leaving in a big society would be needed, when we become old because company is needed then. In rural, even though, you build your own house, people still keep relationship, which is better than City.

wise words. I will remember your words in the future. 🤔😉👊

Having your own personal house is an achievement that someone can't emphasise. It is good to see your friends several years ago did something worthwhile. As you said, we don't really need invitations to attend the celebrations of a friend. Just a phone call will do since you all share something great together.

Congratulations to him. You all did a great job surprising him 👏👍

Excellent that friendship that has been cultivated with them for years. Truly, on an upper floor they have privacy to meet whenever possible, so that initial meeting must be incredible.

That friend is special to you because in his new house he built a room to share with all his friends, and having them with him on a workday is something that gives him much more value.

Building the house of your dreams should be an achievement to be very proud of, and if it also has its space to share with lifelong friends, it makes it doubly special.

A relationship built 21 years back and continuing till now has a special meaning - no formal invitation needed - be it whatever big ceremony, just a call or whatsapp message suffices

That's a vivid picture of enduring friendship and mutual support--celebrating a 21-year bond where formalities are unnecessary. This underscores a reciprocal, almost familial loyalty.

From here, they will be more responsible and will have to decide their professional career path, and that frees up most of us this year. I am sure, we will have frequent get together and travels starting this year - after all, the last phase of life needs to have some fun

The quiet sacrifices of your generation has been tethered into duty. Finally, flexibility is in the offing from the obligation to personal fulfillment.

Your gatherings/get-togethers and fun will hit new-found nostalgia. True freedom might lie in balancing joy with purpose, ensuring legacy endures as vibrantly as friendships.

Thank you.

A relationship of 21 years old have actually come a very long way if you will actually ask me
