Since the beginning of the ‘nuclear family’ structure and since we began migrating for job opportunities, we don’t always have an understanding grandparent, uncle, aunt or cousin around for us to confide in. And parents don’t always understand our situation simply because they don’t have an idea of the pressures faced by the current generation. Meaning, many of us experience excruciating loneliness at one point or the other. In such a scenario, friends will have to fill the gap.

It’s not easy asking a friend for help.
It might be easier if a person in need knows that we are available for help.
Let’s reach out to our friends.
