Unlike Old Times
I once came across a quote that went something like:
"The loneliest feeling in the world is missing someone while he or she is right beside you."
I never understood that until yesterday.
I met up with one of the most special people in my life yesterday. And now I understand what the quote wanted to say. It means that people change. Each and every person in this world will have to either grow a little bit taller, talk a little deeper or maybe become more attractive. Given some time, we all change. It was yesterday that I wished that all changes remained physical.
Talking to her made me realize that she grew emotionally and mentally. Maybe that was the reason why I felt so disconnected from her. I barely knew the person she had become. She had different wants and had certainly matured in her thinking. And I felt like an old rock having a conversation with a gust of wind. I got left behind.
I missed the old times when smiles would pervade our talks, when inside jokes were a common interjection between sentences, when long pauses of silence didn't mean a hurt ego. I was talking to the same individual, but different person.
The first time you learn the meaning of something, you never ever forget the moment. And you remember forever.

CAMILLE: Hi! Can relate talaga most of the people who read this entry. It's something that we all go through eh. Sometimes people change because they want to; because they have a conscious effort to do so. But the hardest thing to handle is people who change because they didn't have a choice--people who just went along with the flow; those who rode on the bandwagon of peer pressure. *sigh* I have some longtime friends who went down that path. Miss them guys. :(
Roi, I sent you my contact details. :) It's nice to hear from you, bro! Miyer, tama ka reunion na 'toh!! Hehehe!!
