Thoughts
Throughout my life, I admit I've been a disappointment to some people. Some years back, I've disappointed a friend of mine when I labelled her a certain adjective after I've found something that she did. Even though I was disappointed at what she did, I shouldn't have done that. She told me she had expected some form of encouragement after that incident she was having and I was the last person she expected who would say all those cruel things to her. This incident is still fresh in my mind. Many years have passed and I really hope she has forgiven me.
Sometimes, I may do things unknowingly that irks people around me. Like this another friend of mine whom I've known ever since I was serving my Ns. I've noticed that she no longer reply to my msgs, even though for those seasonal greetings, and to my horror, I've also been unfriended in facebook. If someone wants to end whatever relationship with me, pls have the basic courtesy of telling me why. At least give me a reason and don't just ditch me and left me hanging. Unless of course, those years of friendship counts for nothing. But ultimately, one can choose how he/she wants to lead his/her life. I can't dictate that. Whatever she did, I hope it's what she really wants. Whatever her reasons are, I shall accept her decision. Sometimes, you just gotta let go.
People often say, life only begins to really start when you've started working. It's certainly true. You'll meet new people, many of them, and you'll realise that the world out there is not as rosy as you'd think it is. I've always tried to be nice and out of concern, ask them about certain things. But then, people don't seem to appreciate it at all. They lie to you straight in your face without feeling anything. Not to mention those fake smiles and niceties. I give up. I shall be less inquisitive, be less concerned and let them tell me only if they feel like telling. That being said, I have to say that there are still a few exceptions. There are still a few of them around who are genuinely nice and sincere and I feel very appreciative of them. Thank you.
I had always grown up in an environment where if you're nice to ppl, they would reciprocate to you. Making friends were not that difficult. Most of them are friendly and we could connect well, even with ny supervisors and superiors during my NS days. However, it has changed now. There are things you can do, but only to a certain extent. There are limits to be observed. It isn't helping when people have doubts over you. Sometimes, I find it hard and frustrating to accept this change.
The world is a strange place to live in. Indeed.
