Dying Friendships

Many people say that best friends are the siblings that we cannot choose. With most siblings, there will be fights, arguments, fall outs, and rough patches. The strongest of relationships can withstand these problems. On the other hand, sometimes it is just best to let go. When the letting go does happen, usually after the fall out, it will sting. In most situations, there are two parties. Both are at fault, but one side more than the other. From personal experience, the side that is expecting the apology is the one that least deserves it. Either way, it is important when to know to let go. The most important thing is that it is going to sting. The good thing is that the next day, it will sting less. This will continue until it doesn't sting anymore. When it comes to forgiving and forgetting, sometimes it is better to forget. There are too many beautiful things happening in this world to waste time worrying about people who do not care about you. It is sad, but sometimes the truth doesn't rhyme.

Be

Today, people worry about being themselves or being something. The best way to achieve this is to just be. In a world where you can be courageous, smart, beautiful, funny, etcetera, sometimes it is best to just be. One problem with this world is that there are too many people trying to make this world work. Some of us need to just let the world happen. This is not saying that a few select people need to rule the world, but everyone cannot do everything at the same time. Stepping back and letting someone else handle problems is sometimes best. If no one steps up, then there is another lesson learned. This is one thing that is easier said than done. A change like this will not happen over night. With gradual steps by everyone, or a majority, some degree of change will happen. Of course, in order for this to work, everyone has to believe in the same thing. That's impossible. A fascinating thing about this world is that there are several things to believe, or not believe in. If you step back and be, you will begin to notice.
