Why do friendships fall apart?
Remember how you used to be so close with that one friend back in school? How
you guys have to be together from morning assembly, to recess, to staying back
after school just to be able to hang around together. Remember that
subconscious, explicit need to find your way to each other no matter what you
were doing, at any part of the day?
And then what happened? Why did the
relationship fade? How did an inseparable connection became nothing more than
just a side-way glance when you walk past each other on the streets?
Friends come and go all the time. The
best reason I can give is that certain friends just belong to certain stages of
your life. Everyone comes into our lives for a reason; most have a valuable lesson
to teach. And when the lesson is taught, the bell rings, and the teacher is
gone.
Every once in a while memories hit us
and we would reminisce, vaguely pondering how life is treating them. To my
friends life let drift away from me, please know that although we are no longer
friends, just mere acquaintances from a distant past, you are in my thoughts
and I wish you all the best life can offer.
Maybe one day when a lesson needs to
be taught again, perhaps the very same lesson that life assigned you to teach
me so many years ago, I hope that fate let us cross path and you can resume
your lesson.
Bell rings, start of a new class.
