The Lesson

You meet a person one day, just like you met so many others, without realizing that THIS person will soon become one of the most important part of your life.While for some, one small conversation is enough confirmation. This is how we make a FRIEND. (Considering the friend a "he" just for convenience). One shared incident and you understand that you've finally found someone with the same mentality as you, Same principles but very different choices. Every time you both talk, you realize more and more how similar thoughts and feelings you share. There comes a time when you get so attached that you cannot imagine that person in any other way. You have your share of joy, craziness, late night chats, teasing and of course, care! Oh and those unforgettable pranks!

And now, you sit here reading this post thinking about that one friend you had, smiling as you recall everything. And now the smile fades away, because now you remember what happened next- the Reality. How you threw him out of your friend list hoping this would throw him out of your mind too. But did it? NO, it only threw him out of your life. Haven't talked to him for months, maybe years.Now you know nothing about what he's upto, which feels weird because you still remember the time that you knew every detail of every minute of his life! Now you see how blind you were when others warned you about him.  Do you Regret it all now? 
DON'T.

People come into your life for 2 reasons:
1. To stay.
2. To give you a precious lesson in life. A lesson that you would never have learnt without their help. 

I know its sad to be lied to, to be used or to be betrayed.People come, and people go. Forgive him. Well, don't if you don't want to. But he fooled YOU. YOU!! He had something in him didn't he? At least give him credit for that! And I'm sorry to break this news to you, but that person probably doesn't even think about you or the friendship you shared. Had he cared, he would have tried to make up by now. Its hard to forget those little things, especially the ones that come after the big blow : The awkward silence. The turning around when you see him just to avoid eye contact. The moment you tried to convince yourself into forgiving him but failed. But you know what? You don't even have to forget them. These memories are just like Scars. Scars are a constant reminder of your careless mistakes that triggered the accident and prevent you from repeating them! Every person that leaves your life teaches you something. I learnt to never show that you care. What did you learn?
