The Petals and Leaves

~to a friend, from a friend~Just when I thought that the world was out there to get at me, I finally realized that after all the sad episode, happy ones come. Not happy as in the really joyful kind of thing but it was merely peace and freedom, in a way, of course. What i meant was, everything went back to normal as the both of us managed to acknowledge one another and sometimes spare a moment or two just to exchange a word or two about ourselves. Sometimes, I do feel that awkwardness and the feeling of slight dislike from her but in the end, things went pretty fine. She did her thing and I did mine.
Now that she is leaving, I have this tinge of regret, probably, for not being able to know her well and see her like how the others who were touched by her. No doubt she did not leave any positive impact upon me at first, but I feel that I would miss having her around. From the time I knew her till today, I must admit that she has change by leaps and bounds; becoming a better and friendlier person besides being Christ like.
I would confess that if I had met her later in life, for instance about 3 years ago, I would have really liked her and made her one of my role models. However, on the other hand, if it hadn’t been for her, I would not know how brutal life can be at this point of life. The different kinds of people we meet everyday can really teach us about life in a way or two. In times of the distress she caused, I realized that there will be people like her or worst than her. She taught me also that there are some people in this world who are difficult to please no matter what you do or how you do it. Besides, she really did knock some sense into me, resulting in who I am now, better I suppose? All in all, I admire her very much for her effort to change; the choice she took and the will to act upon her desire.
It is amusing to have people who have really hurt you a lot and to see them grow up. A privilege, I daresay this was. Well, all the best to whom this may concern, that is if you have somehow trampled onto my blog by accident. Do enjoy yourself and do continue leaving God’s impact on those you have made acquaintance with. :)
