"So little time, try to understand that I'm trying to make a move just to stay in the game, I try to stay awake and remember my name,but everybody's changing and I don't feel the same..."
*A COMMENT: I've been meaning to post this since two weeks ago but I really wanted to organize my thoughts and ideas regarding what I wanted to write and I think I would've never posted it if I kept trying to do that, so here it is... Again, two week ago or something like that, someone asked me "is it wrong if I don't like a close friend the way I used to and even start to feel weird about hanging out with her?" And my answer was no, because the truth is that people, through all the stages of life, change and at one point you may have all things in common and get along very well, and all of a sudden you realize it is not that way anymore, your objectives have changed, your mindset changed or whatever the reason is, but things changed, they changed, you changed and and that is that, the fact is that people come and go due to change, and change is always going to be part of our lives so we might as well deal with it.
And it is indeed very sad, because there are people I saw every single day, people with whom I spoke on a daily basis, knew how their day was, what their plans were, in short, almost everything and now all I know is that they are there and that's it. The reasons? They vary, it could be our schedules do not match, priorities have changed, some people returned to puberty and are unbearable, some others think they are the fucking royalty and that you should always be the one who reaches them or otherwise they won't move a finger, some others just get too involved in their things that they just get disconnected, some others just don't care and some other just start fading away... but every relationship has two sides and I know what and with whom I have tried and seen no result and with whom I have failed and could try something more... To sum up, people change and sometimes you or they won't like that change, but we are not here to force things, be grateful for how the things happened and deal with the fucking change! And no, you are not a bad person if you don't get along with your friend the way you used to, you just have to pinpoint the reason, if you did something wrong, fix it, if you think you could do more, do it, if you find out the reason is change, deal with it...
I would like to end this post by quoting some phrase I heard on TV, which I think fits, as sadly people come and go, changes make them come and go... And just a few remain.
"Somebody once said that our lives are the sum total of our experiences, but it's not the experiences; it’s the people, not just the ones in our lives but those who play through, all the flyby, small, but rich relationships, sometimes they’re the most special of all, that’s why we always promise to keep in touch, if only we did, if only we did…"
