Isn't it sad

I don't know where this quote came from, but I think we can all relate to it in some way:

"It's sad when people you know become people you knew. When you can walk right past someone like they were never a big part of your life, & how you used to be able to talk for hours, & now you can barely even look at them. I don't understand how you can smile all day long but cry yourself to sleep at night. How pictures never change, but the people in them do. How your best friend can become your worst enemy. How forever turns into a few short months that you'd do almost anything to get back. How even though you know letting go of something is best for you, it hurts just the same. How the people who once wanted to spend every second with you, think a few minutes of their time is too much time to spare. How people make promises, and bear their souls to someone despite knowing how common it is for promises to be broken. How people can erase you from their lives cause its just easier then working things out."

It's happened to all of us at one time or another. And I'm sure that we've all done it to someone at some point (perhaps without even realizing it). We weave in and out of people's lives. Sometimes this weaving creates beautiful art. Other times, it tangles and the threads break. And sometimes it creates amazing art only to fall apart later on because the threads were weak.

It's up to us to accept when these threads break. And it's up to us to appreciate when they don't. I think we need to remember that everything has it's time. Like the song says "to everything turn, turn, turn".

I accept. I even realize that it's for the best. But it's still sad.
