It’s crazy to think that for so many years I was head over hills for someone. A lot of times I would do anything for that person because I felt so strongly about them. As I’ve grown older and have finally seen a bigger picture of the world, I have nothing but gratitude for that experience I’ve now learned from. It took many years, but I finally realize my OWN self worth.
In other words, I haven’t felt strongly about someone in a very long time. I’m more focused on myself; self improvement, taking care of my family, and enjoying my life. I’m much more patient now and I appreciate the things I have as opposed to what I don’t have.
No doubt, though, did I feel a little bit of that old feeling tonight when I got that “I miss u” message. But from the broad perspective, I miss that person too, just not to that obsessive manner that I once had. It’s safe to say that I’ve matured enough to have that different “I miss you” feeling. One more sincere to the friendship we’ve always had.
I don’t know. I hope that makes sense. Haha. I’m just glad I’ve grown up a little.
