Sometimes you get those chain mails that say you've got no excuse not to keep in touch with your friend... that a phone call really isn't that difficult to make.. etc etc... i usually believe in that part.. it's a good message..but i hate it when they include that "if you don't forward ... will happen to you" crap... hmm.. more on chain mail in the future.. today's story is different...

But as much as i like to believe in that email... as much as i try to keep in touch.. even when it's not a phone call..( coz... i very very rarely call people.. it's a weird habit i developed i guess.. ask me why and i'll tell you some other day... XD ... ) who says it's easy to keep in touch...?

We change all the time.. maybe we don't realise and even when we don't change... who's to say that person who was your best friend from 4 years ago wouldn't change...? sometimes it's sad that you can't do much to help someone when they seem in need of it but sometimes it just feels like.. they don't seem to be trying to make it easier for you to help them... then what are you supposed to do...??

Not everyone can pick up where they left off... some people can go one year being away and still be able to chat like nothing's ever changed.. it's great when that happens..
but when you can't pick up from where you left off it just gets a little sad.. or annoying.. it's like you've become so distant and it's a whole new puzzle to crack before they let you into their lives again..

So... is this all part of the package of growing up... or did we do something wrong along the way...? I'm not exactly troubled by this but it's just kinda disappointing that things would turn out this way... :(
