Many people walk in and out of our lives but the ones who remain closest to
_-9_ &reour true friends. And friends havs often _10-_- to be more valuable than
families and partners becausethey care and share our joy and pain. *.-l l_ who leave

Making friends and maintaining friendship is part of our life's support system because
without thern, our lives would be emp$, dull and dreadful. ln short"ow whole life dependson
our ability to get _12-*- wift others and to develop friendships. Most of our time spent
outside our home _13_ with friends.
Our friends are _14_ because they are one of the most reliable sources of

drift apart from us. In the courseof friendship, sometimeswe may get hurt or be betrayedand
find it diffrcult to trust someoneanymore.

Patricia never feels bored telling about the awkward moments she has
experienced.The challengesas a face-and-hand painting artist also thrill her.

so you have to apply thicker layers.Atrotherproblemis hairinesswhich makes
it impossiblefbr any work to be done,"shesaid."Unlessthey shave,thereis no

Listening to down-pouring

With gnats, black spiders fly,
Moths sweepout of our rooms
Where termitesbuilt
Their hills ofeggs and queenszoom
In heat. We wash our feet
