Whenever life is going right, it goes left :)
Whenever life is looking up, you fall down.
Whenever life is getting good, it goes bad.
Whenever you seem to achieve that one moment of happiness that you wish would last forever,
You are soon overcome with negative emotions that seem twice as worse as you felt good.
Life is cruel!
There have actually been moments in my life when I have felt so happy, that I was actually fearing what comes next. And you know what, the bad did come. My happiness stolen from me, out of my reach. But your not supposed to live life in fear. They say live life to the fullest.
How am I supposed to do that?
I think it's the way you handle these situations that create character. Your personality is based on your experiences, where you've been and what you've been through. Your personality is where your going. It is as your emerging out of the tough times that you show your true colors. Who are the strong and who are the weak? Who is willing to forgive and forget? Are you going to let that experience define you, or are you going to own it and grow from it.
Honestly, one of the qualities I look for in a friend, is rebound. Like a rubber-band, when pulled back they soon recover and return to their original state, just a little more stretched out than before. Some rubber-bands are thicker and take longer to recover, but that is still better than a broken one.
That said, don't ever pull some back to the point that they break:(
Friends:
A friend, true friend....is one who is with you through all of this. This shows there true personality. If your personality is where you are going, then if they aren't helping you then they obviously don't want that friendship to go anywhere either. And if they do help you, then wherever they're going they want you going to the same place.
I know this was a lot of unfinished thoughts. Thanks for listening... :)
