Black Vs White

Talk about broken friendships.

As I look at her photos a bit longer, she looks different. She has definitely changed. Do I still know her? But when, when was the last time we saw each other, or even bothered to find time to say hi to each other online? It ended just like that.

It angered me that she never made any effort, while I did all the work. It angered me that, within the five of us, I seemed to be the only one making any efforts at all. And it was disappointing each time we had an appointment because there were too many excuses.

It also angered me that I have given up so long ago. That I cannot be bothered anymore.

Did she even know the day I flew off?

How can "Friends Forever" just vanished like that? I have realized just how fragile the friendship was. It was broken the moment I decided to stop calling. There were no arguments, no talk, no attempts to make up, nothing. We just stopped keeping in touch. How could something so fragile felt so strong once upon a time?

Would you even remember my birthday? Should I call you when it's yours?

It is always sad when I realize that the world isn't as ideal as I have always thought it to be. Like how fragile and impermanent friendships can be. People come and go. Sometimes, I care too much, and worry too much about them, but does it even matter to those people that I cared and was worried? Those are the times I realized that it didn't matter that those people matter to me, because I don't matter to them. Today we might be laughing together, but would you remember me tomorrow?

It is also times like this that I treasure people who stood by and stayed around me even more.



On another note, a Sikh temple is being stoned. It's sad and it's scary to know that this is the world we are living in today. There are too many issues going around and people need to sit down and talk about it peacefully, reasonably and actually find a way to restore peace.

You know why sometimes I don't read the newspaper? It scares me to know too much.
