So today, I was thinking about how things can change so drastically in such a short amount of time. That's probably why people are always saying "life is short" even though at present, it's feeling longer than a Lord of the Rings movie. Still, things have a way of changing to let you know that life will soon be heading in another direction. Sort of like the turning signal on a car. Love changes, best friends become strangers (to quote Fab), so on and so forth.So I was sitting here reading my archives and it dawned on me that things have changed so drastically over the two years that I've been blogging my life away. The first being that a very important person in my life is no longer with us. I miss my brother more than words can ever say but that's not to say I don't try. The second thing is that a few good friends have become strangers. Not because life has taken us in different directions and we just drifted apart but because they were psychotic bitches who didn't know the meaning of friendship. i.e. NOT someone who makes you sleep between them and your significant other. But I digress. Also the dynamics of my family relationships are far from what they were two years ago, especially that of my other brother and I. It's safe to say I resolved our issue but it took drastic measures for us to get here. Another thing I've realized is that life is only short when you live it for others. When you live for yourself, it can feel like you have all the time in the world because you can look back on your life and see all your accomplishments and then look to the future with the next great adventure in mind. It's not always the easiest thing to put the wants and needs of others aside to first take care of your own and sometimes, it's damn near impossible. But I can say I'm working on stretching my life out as far as I can, not just for the sake of living but to do something great, something that at least one person will remember me for. If I can say I've touched at least one persons life in a positive way, that'll be good enough for me. Labels: babble and rant, friends and fam |
