the myth of friendship

4 09 2010

I realized this phenomenon of mine quite a while ago.  But I just found time now to write about this. So here is my hypothesis.

I know that change is the only consistency of human life. Friendship is no different. I really want to know who is the founder of a quote that says “friendship is forever”. How dare him to say such thing? I want to challenge that! nothing is forever I can guarantee you.

The first time I learnt this reality when i was abroad with the AFS. When I got home, people changed, I changed. Some friends were such strangers to me! “Transition”, I thought. Then I entered college. Some of my very best friend during my last year of high school became kind of distant friend. ‘Transition”, I justified. And now, i finished my undergrad. Some of the very people that I spent most of my college years got very hard to keep in touch with. They hardly have time to spent together. “Transition” here we go again.

It is sometimes really painful to see how people come and go in life. I thought they are there forever but they’re not. And life does not compromise with this. I can’t complain. Life continues to move on. I’ll just do my best to keep on those friends that I have left now. Before life take them away (again) from me.

Well if you look closely to the word “friend”, you’ll find it ends with “-end”.
