I haven't been writing here lately, and it's a shame because when I went few pages back on my old blog, I was reminded of the things I no longer remember. To put the months I missed in a nutshell, life went on, unsurprisingly. Gained new friends, lost some, made new memories, old ones slipped through my mind.
I lost a good friend not too long ago. It was over a rather childish matter, but when it happened, the cause seemed like the world to us. I look back now and I regret some things I did, and I do feel like apologizing, but never did. I tell myself things happened for a reason, and we both are better off going separate ways. Of course I know that's not entirely true.
I also met up with two old dear friends of mine. Surprisingly I didn't feel the need to fill every second with words, because they flowed naturally. There was no awkwardness, no pretense, just simple catching up, filling each other in and laughing over things. It felt like we never lost the years between us.
Friends come and go. It's an old saying that everyone knows. But some friendships taught me that you don't just leave everything to fate. You don't simply wait for a friend to come to you to know you've got a good one, but instead be the good one. It's a reminder for myself as well, to go out from my room sometimes and spend more time with the good friends I know I should keep.
