Two People Came Out of a Building and into a story

Have you ever wondered how life would be if you were to see the days of our lives from a bird’s eye view?  Are the people we meet in lives destined to be our friends, lovers or in laws?  I’ve always wondered and always seem to have good friends but never get to keep them for long.  I used to think there was something wrong with me until I decided that actually- friends, like lovers, come and go and everyone comes into your life for a reason, fate as some believe.

I have three best friends that I’ve been friends with for years, every year (or two) if lucky, I get a new best friend and then we lose touch or I decide to end the friendship is it gets too draining for my liking- you know that some people take advantage of your kindness and generosity- I’m a typical cancerian- a mother hen to everyone.  One lesson I have learnt though, is that I should always make an impact and play an important role in that person's life, so that when our “expiry” date comes, he or she will remember me as the best friend he or she never had.

Two people come out of a building and into a story- we all come from different backgrounds and sometimes we pass each other and meet in town or at events, without even knowing that one day that particular lady or gentlemen you’re standing in a queue with, might just be your future spouse or best friend in the next 5 years or decade.  With this in mind it is vital for one to be mindful of their acts and attitude- (for those who have temper syndromes that is) who knows, the lady you yell at your shopping kiosk might be your next managing director or interview you next week.  Our stories are all different yet so similar; we wake up in the morning, not knowing whether your day will be a good one or a bad one.  Life is like a story board, it is up to you to make it worthwhile for yourself or for your loved ones.

  1. The truth is that at one stage or another we really do need good friends on our sides. You are still young, you are still going to meet a lot of them. The important thing is to take something positive out of each friendship.
