Another Interpretation of Friendship

Never before had I imagined that one day I should have the opportunity to live with so many girls and yet never before had I been confident in myself that I would be able to get along with them harmoniously for four years. The very act of approaching my new dormitory made me frightened and bewildered. With what kind of expression should I face them? Would a single “hi” be proper? Would they accept such a plain girl like me? All the questions haunted my mind. Harboring such a complex and uncertain emotion I pushed the door open.

I was about to greet my new roommates, but suddenly I felt that I had a lump in my throat. They did not appear to have the same preoccupations that I had. They just coped with their own businesses, sorting out their clothes, and making arrangements for their future life. Thus tranquility became the dominant note in the dormitory.

To my surprise, facing such a situation, I did not feel a sense of disappointment. On the contrary, I even felt a little bit happy, since I had been long expecting a tranquil environment. With the elapsing of time, we got to know each other deeper. I was pleased to find that in deep soul we all belonged to the same pattern----reserved as we were, we all set high our horizons and never stopped pursuing our dreams. Somehow I often thought that it was just the arrangement of the fate that brought us together, since we seemed so alike.

However, not long before this kind of harmony was disturbed by my own upset of mind. During that period, because of my working tasks, each day I had to stay out for a long time, unable to communicate and exchange ideas with my roommates. When I was engulfed in the state of confusion and misery caused by the heavy burdens, I found no one to turn to help. What I was concerned about seemed to have nothing to do with them and what they were doing and talking about seemed so far away from me. I often dreamed that they were on top of a hill, overlooking me with eyes filled with incomprehension. While I, standing at the foot of the hill, tried my utmost to reach them, only to be left in despair. How I wished that they could say something even nonsensical to me! How I wished that they could be another type of people with a clear demarcation between what to hate and what to love. However, it was impractical, since they were destined to belong to the group that seemed indifferent to everything. While one incident changed my mind and made me cherish this kind of calm better and more confident in our friendship.

One day when I was leaving the teachers’ office, it was already in deep night. The surroundings were in complete silence and frightening darkness. Even though I was so reluctant to go to that cold world, my feet were out of control and they went directly to my dormitory. At the dormitory gate, I was startled to find that there still existed a little light glimmering in the darkness, so faint but yet so clear. In that setting, it seemed so unique and powerful. Just in the guidance of the light, I went to the room without any obstacles. All of my roommates had been in sound sleep, leaving the world in calm and the rosy light. Unconsciously tears rolled down my cheeks, and those were tears of happiness and gratitude. “Just because someone doesn’t love the way you want them to, doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they have.” This was a belief that I had borne in mind for a long time, but not until then had I understood the true meaning of it.

Sometimes someone may not know how to show their feelings to you, but just give yourself a few minutes to think over and you will sense the essence beyond this superficial indifference. Since we all like tranquility, both in environment and in our mind, our friendship is bound to be a common one. Neither do we have passionate feelings, nor do we have sharp changes in life, and even anger leaves us away. While in our deep feeling, we are bound together by a kind of invisible power. I am sure that it must be love and care towards the others, from which the healing energy emanates. It is just this kind of power that melts all the misunderstandings and unpleasantness. Thus it makes us think together, laugh together, and even cry together.
