Friends, Our Chosen Family - Ayushi Adyasha

"Friends are our chosen family. From the beginning, Sansita has been my constant support . We have been friends since class two. After scoring well in class 10, I decided to take Science and join the medical line.

 After joining, I realised it is not a cake walk. I tried, but it didn't work out. After that failure, everything started falling apart. Every relationship around me started to fail, even my father started to behave differently. Many friends started behaving otherwise.

After many arguments, my father was convinced to enroll me into the agricultural stream, but  after joining the college, my mental condition was unstable. I couldn't share anything with anyone and I had to fake my happiness. 

But, on Christmas, I went to Sansita's house for celebration and started my "happiness act". When I came home, she called and directly asked me, "What's wrong?". She could sense that something was wrong and she asked me to confide in her because it was her right as my best friend. 

Her words triggered me so much that I shared every damn thing I was feeling about my career, family drama, love life problems and how I feel screwed up by every relationship around me. She "listened" to me and I felt so relaxed. The way she handled me during that time without me asking her to do so strengthened our bond. She taught me how to take things positively and she was the one who introduced me to the actual meaning of self love.

 I call her "SHINE" because I think she adds light to everything around her. We usually have debates on who will marry first and what we are gonna do as bridesmaids ( she thinks I will be marrying first and I think the opposite ). We have a great abroad trip plan with our girl gang, but I don't know when it's happening . I hope it happens soon!" - Ayushi Adyasha
