I read this somewhere
"An abrupt end to a wonderful start. A friendship that was cut off by too much pride, unspoken hurt feelings and poisonous misunderstandings. May this friendship rest in peace, and hopefully, when all has passed, once again meet it's maker."
and it made me think.
Is it time to clean out my closet? Looking at what I've accumulated from the past years, some of my stuffs are gathering dust, some of which are beyond recognition... others, just beyond repair. Do I keep them there? Try to salvage what's left? Or just give up on them and throw them away? Would have have been an easy job if they were actual things... the thing is, they're not. Discarding people or past relationships isn't as easy as yanking clothes off their hangers and dumping them in a trash bag. For one, you think about the memories you had with them. Was it fun? Was it bleak? Was it sad? Or it's all rolled into one?
But sometimes, you're the only one left thinking of these memories. It takes two to tango, you know. You can't keep the friendship if it's just you all along. Ano yun? Befriending yourself? Haha. Same goes with past relationships... kaya nga past diba? Meaning, nakalipas na. Move on. Collect some more. If something catches your fancy, think about it. There has to be something more than having caught your fancy. Do you think you need it? Will you be able to take care of it? Years from now, will it look the same as you had first caught sight of it? Bahala ka... You make your move. But this time around, make sure you'll keep it.
Tao na yang pinag-uusapan, you can't discard them just like that.
