MOVING ON

“No man is an island.”

          This is why we try to approach someone – to get to know that person more and if fortunate enough we even get to be close friends with them. But what if the term “friend” does not anymore fit to the person whom once used to be your friend? What if best friends turned out to be the worst? And what if the healthy relationship you thought was not really good at all?

Moving on is not only restricted for failed romantic relationships. Sometimes moving on also applies to tainted friendships. Some things in this world are meant to be kept broken. Some things do not need to be changed. Some things just don’t have any remedy.

Sometimes, the only option we have is to move on with our lives. Of course, we can still visit places that are significant for both of us. We can reminisce the happy memories but don’t forget that it’s now only a part of the past. Back then, when we sat there laughing with them, but now we can only see an empty seat waiting for people to use them.

When I see those pictures, I remember how happy we were that time. The time when I thought everything was going to last. Now I’ve really proven that feelings do change. Even if I’ve sworn to myself and to that person that nothing would change, now I stand that things happen for a reason. I might not know now but time will come, the answers we’re looking for will slowly walk down on us.

Days will come that we will ask ourselves, “What happened to us? We used to be friends.”
