classes are nearing an end. it's only a few days away that we'll have to bid goodbye to the school year that had brought about the people that we now are. over the months that had passed, i can say the people around me have changed alot. and i have changed also. at the start of this ten months journey, i wished to find new friends, engage myself in new things and realize what my dream really is with the persons i wish to share it with. and yes i found the things that i am looking for - friends. But unfortunately, in the course of finding new ones, i, unknowingly, have lost the ones who first touched my heart. but why have i lost the ones i loved? because i drove them away and took them for granted? i guess it's because of the changes. over the months that have passed, i came to realize that ive materialized into someone i dont know anymore, someone new. well, People change. From the way we look, think, act, feel, our attitudes - change. and i guess these changes brought about the new me and the new you. the new you and me with attitudes and desires and dreams and likes that can never meet again, not the way they used to be. changes when you realize these will you be the person you used to be or loose that person completely? ive been thinking about a text message ive received a year ago. it was sent anonymously and whoever sent that message, i thank you. it says: "People say that you dont really know what you have until you lost them, but i knew what i always have , i just never thought i would loose them." i started this journey with my friends and all the dreams that ive pictured with them. And these dreams we've shared have been my map to reache the end of this ten months journey. they had been the guide to this journey's end. but i guess along the way, i've been lost. along with the people intertwined with those dreams. i lost some friends, the reasons for my journey. it's only a week away from now. andi'll be reaching the destination - alone. and i gues i have to. coz i dont know how to find my way back and journey with the ones ive lost. someone once said: "losing your way on a journey is unfortunate. But, losing your reason for the journey... is a fate more cruel." |
