5 Ways To Celebrate International Friendship Day

Give Them A Ring

The last time you spoke to your friend who doesn’t live close to you may be months or years ago. Hearing a very familiar voice on International Friendship Day is a good way to brighten each other’s day. For some, it may feel awkward to call out of the blue, but the awkwardness would fade immediately after hearing the first laughs. It won’t really hurt to let someone know you remember them.

 Send Thoughtful Notes and Messages

Write on a card, postcard-- or a sticky note-- and let them know how much you care. Let them reminisce some of the best memories you had together. If writing a letter seems a bit old-fashioned, you can use social media to post your message and let the whole world know how special these people are in your life.

Spend Time With Them Personally

If you can spend time with them personally, do it! Choose an activity that would allow you to catch up with each other and have fun. This may differ in every set of friends. Some might prefer quiet time in a coffee shop, others may want to go for a night out party, and others would enjoy watching a concert, game or movie. Either way, this is a great opportunity for you to rekindle the friendship again.

The Beauty of Friendship

Friendship is realizing you’re on a journey with someone while enjoying it together, supporting each other, and providing comfort and encouragement and unconditional love.

It’s about sharing a part of your lives, and friends add something to your current personality and beliefs as you spend time with them. And the part when you do things together makes it such a wonderful experience.


At Roses Only, our flowers are groomed to portray floral mastery. Nurtured by the worlds best growers equatorial instead, each rose reaches an impressive 65cm in length within their 15-week growing period before being distinguished by color and character. Each stem is then carefully placed in our elegant, signature gift boxes which, never fail to secure a transcendent first impression. Around here, quality is no mere coincidence.
