I don’t have that many friends in my life but the ones I do have, I will usually stick to them for years like they are to me. Why? Mostly because they trust me enough to confide in me, as I am to them. I’m gonna straight up brag that I am a good secret keeper, mainly because I now have mum brain syndrome so whatever you told me 5 years ago, I’m pretty sure that secret is long gone from my memory. 🤪🤣
My husband let me have a girls’ outing today with my girlfriend. Out of the blue, she said I look prettier and happier. And honestly I think I do kah kah kah. All credits due to my husband later hahaha. 😉
Also… I discovered that a friend of a friend to me in college is now a boyfriend to my girlfriend in college. He got divorced, she just broke up with her boyfriend. They got together after almost 10 years of us leaving college.
What a small world, we kept repeating that to ourselves tonight. A very much needed interesting story for me to share with my husband during our pillow talk session.
Case in point, never leave anything on bad terms. You’ll end up regretting it or you’ll be reminded of it for years to come.
Come to think of it - do I have any regrets for any friendship or relationship that I no longer have? Seems like those don’t matter to me anymore. People left me, it used to take a toll on me. But now? I learned that those departures left me with the best things that I could ever ask God for.
For me - when something ends, it ends for good. There’s no need to feel heavy by what happened, rather find what’s the lesson for us to bring forward. I used to be bitter then, but honestly now I couldn’t care less. God have given me so much to appreciate today than whatever I used to have. So why should I be lamenting on my past?
Points to ponder, Nina. 🥸
