Forever Changed

**This isn’t a blog about lovers or friends, instead it is about all of the people who come and go. The only constant in your life is yourself.

How is it that we can meet someone for a moment, a day, a week, or maybe even a month, nothing really changes, but everything is different. How is it that someone you never knew before can make you feel something you didn’t know was possible. As people come and go in our lives we learn how to accept them and let them go in the same breath.

So, what is the point to these crazy lives we live?

Some would argue that it is to create, to discover, to teach or a number of other things. I argue that the point is to live. The point is to learn to accept things as they come, and let them go when it is time.

My theory is that we should all just live and learn. We should live every day and we should learn something new from it. I believe the point of life is to practice this so that one day, maybe, it is easier. Maybe one day it is easier to meet a total stranger who sparks something inside of you and let them go without having it weigh so heavily on your heart. I believe that in this life we are here to learn to not cause so much pain on ourselves, instead we should just enjoy it for what it is and be able to take the memory with us to reflect on.

I’m sure you may not agree with my ideas about our lives purposes, but at some point in your life I am sure you carried a person’s memory with you a little too long. Maybe if you have you can understand that we are only hurting ourselves when we let them live too long in part of heart that they changed.

Whether friends or lovers, we meet so many of them that by the time we are old and gray we should be able to reflect with a smile instead of a heavy heart.


"And even if we never talk again, please remember that I
am forever changed by who you are and what you meant to me."
