Basically lost contacts with my secondary school friends after I graduate because maybe I'm really such a bad friend. However, it's never too late for amends right?! I met up with 'em for a simple dinner and dessert to catch up at Laurent Cafe & Chocolate Bar. I won't go so much into details on that cafe because I practically forgot what we ordered, but just know that it's a really nice place with affordable and interesting desserts. It felt really good though, hanging out with the people you once used to spend your time with daily, reminiscing about the old times, and probably even making plans for future events. So glad that this friendship isn't gone with the wind.
I've had my fair share of ups and downs with friends. People come and go, whether or not you want them to. You may regret some people that you meet, and for the others, they may just be a blessing sent from above. Some will teach you life lessons that not everyone is a kindhearted innocent soul that you thought they'd be, and some will have your back regardless the situation. I've met all sorts of people, well maybe not all, considering that I'm only 20 and still have a whole life ahead of me, but surely enough to teach me that I shouldn't give my heart out so easily. Still, I make the same mistake, but not to worry, I'm still learning, and with each friendship, I become stronger and a better friend for those that stuck with me throughout the years. I realize that some people are just not worth it, but a part of me just naively believes that they might want to be redeemed, so I just give 'em second chances, sometimes more than just that. After all, people do err and they still deserve an opportunity to make things up.
I don't know. Some of y'all may beg to differ, but note that I'm still learning, in this very cruel and harsh world where people are capable of resorting to manipulative ways to get things done their way or hurting you just to save their own skin. Yes I am learning to accept and deal with all these.
Kisses,
Vinez
