STORY ABOUT LIFETIME BOND AND FRIENDSHIP TO LAST

Hello dear Steem people! As I introduced myself recently, I decided to expand my story and tell little bit more about the things that I live, love and appreciate!

As I strongly believe that you are defined by the quality of people that surrounds you, same as the one that passed trough your life and left an impact.

This guy is one of that kind of people, a lifetime bond, a brother from another mother.....

A monument of friendship built long time ago
the guy on the right

His name is Goran, a big chunk of read bearded dude that's been following me for awhile (more like for the past 30 years).
Extremely hard to get rid of a guy, as you can see on the picture above. So I choosed to go with the flow and the flow brought us here..... 30 years later we are still here (more successful than most of the marriages these days).

So 30 years of friendship brings quite few stories, beautiful memories and also a sad ones too. Some funny and hilarious moments.....like the time when he caught me ...... Ooo never mind, another time story!

So what to say about our friendship! We know for each other since we know for ourselves, way back from 1987. We are 90's kids, so we were enjoying all the cool stuff of that time...riding our first BMX bikes, playing our first Gameboy, SEGA, Nitendo, Play Station....... you name it! Street was our other home, teaching us things that none of the schools of this world does and we were thankful for all the lessons.

Growing up included some cool bands and now when i remember ....also some funny styles! We went from Techno to Hip Hop, from Rock to Metal, from Punk to Dub, Dubstep to Drum n Bass..... I remember of our first Techno party, good God that was something hahaha (and not forget to mention that we were 11 years old) both of us with eyes size of truck tire amazed by fact that we are there...finally, on the spot , dancing and not in our bedroom reversing our tapes as usual! We were totally bad ass, staying up late, all hooked up to the beat, drinking multi-vitamin juice and in a company of our parents...heh (well how else would two 11 year old get in on a Techno Party!)
And also, this was the year when 'Kevin and Perry go large' movie was released

This was the actual party

In years to come we enjoyed quite a few parties ....

A picture from those days!This is one of his tries of doing my haircut

As we grew up, we both developed our own personality, we were stepping our way into the world, we went to same high school, same class, lived in same building 3 floors apart, on the weekends we would sleepover at each others's apartment, even that I was just 3 floors above heh, funny!We spent so much time together that even when my mother would send me to buy something in the supermarket that was like 40 meters away form were we lived, I would first run down to his place to get his and only then we would go get what we needed, He was doing the same thing! For awhile people were thinking that we are brothers and it was strange if one of us would show up without the other!

We had video games tournaments, LAN parties, we had football team in our building and weekend tournaments, defending our pride against other neighborhood... Boy will be boys, so sometimes things wouldn't go so well, sometimes we would win, but the times when we would lose a game were let's say.....intense. That got us into a fight and we didn't spoke for a three months, that was the only time that we had a big argue.

It is pointless to write about all the stupid crazy things that we did, it would take a year just to list them all.
Of course then there was a time when we started chasing girls, time of unrequited love, first relationships and first breakups, we always supported each other, endless hours of sitting in a bedroom, listening music and searching for a word of wisdom! Our first relationship was with two also best friends haha, who would say....boy that was a drama back then!

So far you can tell that we spent huge amount of time together, but after high school, he went to college and I joined the army! Years passed but our bond remained the same , sometimes we call each other a warlock! The reason for that is that a lot of times, despite of the distance, time and place, we share same thoughts or sometimes we call each other speaking about same thing....sometimes it's weird heh.

What I would say about our friendship is, that despite already strong bond, our friendship is still growing, developing, we shared same childhood, same school, same sorrow, same laughs, same girls, same path but also so different in character, different in vision, different in passion, different in any possible way.......same same but different!

One last word that describes us...... Some of them that know me, know that I have that thing with always beeing late
(not always, but sometimes I do! Believe me I have good explanation for that) so he dedicated a piece of his skin to that skill of mine!

better late than never.jpg
