strange change
(i only sort of intended for that to rhyme.)
what an odd feeling and strange happening.. when someone who used to be such a large part of your life becomes a near stranger.. and all the while, they remain understood by you in every way. they're just no longer... there.
it's not so weird that it happens...that our lives move on and change and we've got no good choice but to keep on going.. i guess it can just be uncomfortable when you still care. and it only leaves me to wonder if all of life works that way on a relative scale. it seems to me that it does.
"everything good needs replacing"... i can't remember what that's from. feel free to chime in if you know.
if we were able to manifest all of the experiences of our "pasts" without focusing so much on the idea that they no longer exist, we wouldn't be left with longing hearts... but rather, hearts full of so much life.
nevertheless, changes like these certainly affect the mind.

i like that idea. that life is full with all of our past experiences, rather than lacking or empty of them in the present moment. cause isn't time just one big moment anyway? i just got in touch with someone from my elementary school, i was sure he'd forgotten who i was or something but it's been so good just sending emails through facebook... it's like the years that pass don't even matter when people care about eachother. it is good to reconnect, nonetheless, even if people have faded or seem like strangers. its good to meet them again with appreciative curiousity.
