been talking with a friend about people, friendships, relationships and the weirdness of it all... its the ever repeating question of why so-and-so is like this or like that...how this someone had changed noticeably or why this somebody acts this way to some and that way to others...questions about human behavior...that we try to find answers for but we could never really phatom...which leads me to conclude...
people change
...simplest answer. end of story...two words which makes everything acceptable(?)...which is because...change is the only thing that is constant...and it is a fact that all of us changes in time...on different aspects, in different levels...
...funny to remember that when we were younger (maybe upto now) we used to write..."don't change" or "stay as you are"...at the end of our letters. i used to do this, because there is really comfort in familiarity and if people changes, it breeds animosity...which is really sad...
i sort of "lost" some friends eventually due to different changes...location, status,fone#, etc,etc...but generally, when you look back its really sad to remember how good the relationship used to be...and how different you guys are now...and you tend to regret...that you did not take care of the relationship...but life's like that...you could never really keep track of the people that comes to ur life...some would eventually go...thus, i learned to treasure whatever there is...and take time to appreciate what is in the present...
...i used to hate change...i've always lived in the past...because familiarity is comfort to me...and sometimes i tend to be stucked and stagnant...there where moments that i can feel everything around me moving too fast...and i keep track of things only with my eyes...because i am to afraid to make a move...because i might lose something i want to hold on to forever...but after awhile...it is frustrating when you can't keep pace anymore...and suddenly everything around you is so different, and it so hard to understand...then i tried to take small steps...and let go of a few things...at first it was painful...but i console myself by thinking...everybody's changing eniweis...and then i stopped asking the whys...and accepted the universal answer that life is just like that sometimes...
...and living with that thought makes life easier to accept...but i'm afraid, my heart is getting so cold...sometimes i just refuse to feel...and never bother with what changes brings...to protect your heart from hurting, you tend to cover it with steel...and therefore you incapacitate your heart from feelibng everything...even happiness...
...i really know now what a cold, cold heart must have felt like...it is scary...
