Cutting the cord.

Hello,and welcome back to the blog. Been a while since i wrote a post,exams are to blame,but now there's a lot of time to kill.(A sincere apology to those who thought i had closed the blog for good)

Having so much free time is what we always want and yet when we finally get it we dont want it anymore.Holidays aren't what they were anymore,the only thing i like about it is i can wake up whenever i want, after that its all downhill during the day.

The mind is just too damn idle and it leads to overthinking, problems which were never there in the first place pop up from nowhere and get you all tangled up in the head.One such issue which came up was when i thought of all the people who i've completely lost touch with and have no idea where they even were anymore(keeping in touch on FB doesnt count).

More often that not its the people you were closest to that you've completely lost touch with.Its never those annoying buggers who you never liked in the first place,its always someone who you were close with,had your best times with.
Tried to work my mind around why the cord gets cut,and the only reason i could think of is it happens unintentionally more often than not, i wish it could be some dramatic event like a big fight to which i could pinpoint to but it isn't, atleast for me. 


This is just disturbing tho.


It just isn't the same when you're in different cities,calls or messages dont have the same feeling since your'e too far away to really make a difference.
The odd call is always nice tho,and it helps to remember how much things and life in particular has changed.

Anyways,what the distance does help determining is who your best friends really are and who are there just to fill up your friend list on Facebook.
With the real ones you may not be in touch for years and still with just one message or meeting you still connect & things seem to have just paused in time rather than stopping altogether.

To sum up, environments will always change and you need to adapt by adding new people into your life,just the way life works,and that in turn will result in some of your older friends being given a tad less importance.
You really hope that one person doesn't get a raw deal tho,but nearly always ends up happening.

Depending on the person,this constant change either leads to complete cutting off with someone who you were very close with or you still hold that person high up on your priority list and still help solve his/her problems.

I've been on both sides of the spectrum,there are people who i've been very close to years ago who i have no idea about right now and i also have friends who i've known for 15+ years with whom things never change regardless of how long we go without talking.
"At the end of the day,you're just left with yourself all the time, whatever you do anyway. You've got to get down to your own God in your own temple. It's all down to you, mate".

That's a John Lennon quote,and i thought id summarizes things up pretty well.
