Raindrops

As I look back on my life, I realize that every time I thought I was being rejected from something good, I was actually being re-directed to something better.

One day it just clicks… You realise what is important and what isn’t, you learn to care less about what other people think of you and care more about what you think of yourself. You realise how far you have come and you remember thinking that things were such a mess they’d never recover and then you smile. You smile because you’re truly proud of the person you have fought to become.

How evanescent those loves and friendships seem at this distance in time … We move on, make new attachments. We grow old. But sometimes, we hanker for old friendships, the old loves. Sometimes I wish I was young again. Or that I could travel back in time and pick up the threads. Absent so long, I may have stopped loving you, friends; but I will never stop loving the Day I loved you.

“How beautiful to find a heart that loves you, without asking you for anything, but to be okay.”
