When It's Over, No One Wins!



People Change, Friends come and go. We can never tell we know them fully, as they may or we may never even know themselves/ourselves. We get mad, it's okay. They get mad, it's okay. Nothing stays permanent. The most important thing is they've been a part of our lives as we've been to them. Just like the stories in the books of life, there are different chapters or even sequels.We don't really need hundreds of friends. We just need ONE who will be with us through thick and thin, through good times and bad...So, when someone decides to leave the friendship, do not fret, do not be a sour grape. It's a done deal..Just Get Over It!

I never lose friends, they lose me. We may not be as close but friends to me they stay.. I will always like them. A friend even took away a gf from me and I thanked him because he took someone who did not deserve me. Darn why am I so serious in my comments lately ? The lenten season?

I'm a senior citizen . Don't expect me to remember anything

Elz,

I'm fortunate i met you and babes and everyone here. You've all supported me so kindly in my heartaches. Now, i'm so accustomed it numbs me to the bones. Friends are gifts from God above.

Greatest feelings in the world when two souls profess a love for each other...

I made quite a number of friends, some i treated as sisters and brothers in the context of greek lettered brotherhood backhome....when i came here i made a lot of friends too, helped them out, vsome abused that friendship , i closed my doors. But then again there are four women from different cultures and background who keep me sane and alive for more than a decade now, and our friendship is so deep that we came to realized that we are like one big family.....

ELZ,

The word 'friendship' is now an anathema to me

I guess I have to live by everyone's definition of friendship now, for mine has a superficial meaning to it.

And I agree, there will always be that someone who will be your 'bestest friend' that will stood out among the rest. And when you found yours, hold on to like you're holding the half of precious 'you'...

Barbz, you are right..I also treat my true friends as family.. and yes, we will grow old together too...Elena and her family already included me in their future retirement home in Lanao...hehehehe...So, I guess, I don't need to be in the Nursing home when I'm already "demented"...

Elz, good to have that someone you can always rely on, joke on or vent on but the danger in having only "one" true friend is that you become dependent on her or his company, they have their own lives too....we should not be selfish ...but rest assured, he or she will always be your friend

There's always time for forgiveness and forgetting the past, but never forgetting the lesson to be wary next time.



within each one of us, and let it begin with me (and each one of us)..one breath at a time.
