Changes

It sometimes amazes me how quickly things can change or how slowly they change over time. One day everything is the same, and the next it's not drastically different. You can't imagine your life changing in an instant, but just like that it does. The people, the places, the things, all change from one thing to the next or they just disappear all together and sometimes you don't get a chance to say goodbye...

I've said goodbye a few times within the past couple of months and it hasn't been easy. One moment I'm preparing myself to see these people and these places and the very next second, they're gone. Like they've vanished into thin air. You don't hear or see them, you don't know anything about what happened except for the fact that they once happened to you. It's like a dream. It all seems so real and intense, the feelings you can get are all incredible until you wake up, and realize it was just a dream. Was what happened to me an actual dream though? I mean it couldn't have been....it seemed so real for so long. I held on to every word as if I needed it to support my last breath until I realized it was only a dream.

Sometimes, in life, we come across people or places that are so good to be true that within a couple of years...we realize that they were too good to be true. Not everything can be true and real because what would life be like if everything were true and real? Most true and real things can become wrong and fake so quickly. Things you would never consider, but it's important to have those things happen in your life...because it always keeps you in check with reality. It reminds you of the realness and trueness of life, and forces you to remember that this world isn't perfect.
