the business of being left behind..
as we advance with our lives, we tend to wonder why some of our friends tend to not understand us anymore..
some may mock us, some may fade away into the world and some stay..
have you found the solution to that?
i guess we never really find a solution to that
its just part and parcel of life.
but what we can do is to accept it and move on..
everything happens for a reason whether we like it or not
and if our friends choose to turn their backs on us, it is not ours to control.
but what we can control is how we deal with it.
maturity comes with the choices we make and the lessons that we learn from.
if your friends fall out of understanding, dont fret.
everyone moves at their own pace regardless of how much others may influence or push them.
when and if a person matures, it is at their own pace………………. or never
whether or not you meet again at the same point in life is left entirely up to choices.
one can never try to make someone mature.
someone wise once told me,
“Never slow to a walk or crawl just because someone else cant catch up with you (mentally). Everyone moves at their own pace. All you can do is hope they catch up with you at some point in the race.”
everyone has a different path to discover
and in this process of discovery, we grow and we change to adapt
some paths may be parallel some may go in different directions and some goes off tangen
but the beauty in life is that some of these paths, for whatever reason, crosses again sometime later in our lives.
however, we as humans cannot easily accept that people come and go,
especially when it comes to the people we hold dear.
we always try to hold on to them for whatever its worth.
but sometimes it really isnt worth holding on to.
life is such that if the right choices were made, and if circumstances grants us permission, friends will meet again
creating either an even stronger friendship or losing it entirely.
nothing is ever certain,
some may say that the destination is what’s important and how we get there does not matter.
i say they are both equally as important as the journey there is what shapes us to be the person we are and will be.
true friends are those who will stand up for you no matter the accusations.
they are also the ones who will confront you and set you right.
we are always going to be at this juncture as we meet and lose people every day.
but the singular most important thing you need to know and remember is that
as long as you know who you are,
you know what you are,
you know where you are heading
and you know who loves you,
its enough.
It really is enough.
