So nowadays a lot of people are undergoing changes in their life and in my opinion some changes are necessary in everyone’s life. So like that here I would like to talk about a time when something changed my life in a good way. So it happened 3 years ago and it was during my college time. So at that time I was able to meet a new friend from my college and her name is Nandana. Actually she is very opposite to my character and she is very extrovert person while I am very introvert person. I had the fear to socialize with others and I had some phobia to mingle with others. So after talking to her and after becoming her friend I was able to get rid of my introvert behavior. So I think that is one of the good changes that had ever happened to me. Also I felt very happy about that and when I was with her I was able to talk to others without any fear. Like I do go through a lot of experiences in my life like some of my friends have betrayed me in my past life and all. So due to that I have that trust issue. Like I won’t trust anyone so easily but after mingling with her I understood the fact that not everyone is safe. So at some point she taught me the value of friendship. So it changed my life in a very good way. Like after meeting her I was able to socialize with others without any fear and also she found out a lot of talents which are hidden inside me. And more than that she encouraged me to do things which I am great in. So I think it is one of the best things that I have ever received in my life. So if I talk about a good change I would definitely say her name. Like getting a friend like her is one of the best things that have ever happened to me. So I really love her.
