I have always thought it was strange how people come and go out of my life for no apparent reason. It may be very apparent to a third party looking in, but how will i know if I’m driving them away or if they’ve discovered they have no use for me. Both of us may be subconsciously separating without any reason, I suppose. Learning to trust takes longer than I have on this earth, so I am probably overly cautious when letting people in. I’m feel pretty certain that the problem is mine

If I were to try and give you answers I would be wrong in whatever I would say. This leaves me with making personal observations. If you identify, great. If I make no sense, let it pass.

Life separates us. Yes there are times when people part ways because they irritate each other, but I find that for the most part our paths just stop crossing. It isn’t intentional and I gave up attempting to read minds long ago because I’m awful at it. All I was doing was projecting my thoughts and emotions on others. I can even do this with plants and animals. Instead, now I just appreciate the present and those around me and if for some strange reason we mutually like spending time together, then I enjoy it without placing any expectations or bets on tomorrow. Tomorrow has enough trouble for itself. Finally, there is indeed a friend who sticks closer than a brother and he promises to never leave nor forsake any of us.
