I've Learned...

... that nature is truly beautiful and that God is truly great.
... that friends will always be there for me even if they aren't there anymore.
... that though I feel wanted, I am never really needed.
... that real and solid friendships are hard to find and require a lot of work.
... that friends are just people who accompany me at specific parts of my journey as I accompany them in parts of theirs, and sooner or later, forks in the road will separate our journeys.
... that I have reached several forks in this road.
... that the idealistic side of me hopes we can all achieve all our dreams while supporting each other but in reality, we show our support best by letting each other go.
... that it's still best to keep my distance. It's the most effective self-preservation method. I can't miss what I never had.
... that nothing lasts forever and good things surely end sooner than you want them to.
... that it's easy to let people go. The hard part is dealing with the sadness and the emptiness.
