The Unexpected Ones :)

"Life is so full of unpredictable beauty and strange surprises." -unknown

People come and go. They come like the unexpected visitors. Some come and immediately go. Some stay for awhile. Some don't. We will never find out for how long they will stay. You know, I once hate the line "people come and go". Call me dumb or whatever, but I welcome those unexpected ones and treat them in the nicest way. I still remember this moment when I let some people come and give them some rooms in my heart. I let them stay. However, you know, we, human beings always take things for granted. Next thing I know is, people change. They come and go as easy as the wind blows. I turn bitter.

It takes quite some time to finally forgive and forget, to carry on with the amazing ups and downs in life. I finally forget the past and finally start to embrace the line: people come and go (again). It's not easy, nothing is ever easy but at least,  you gotta try.

You know that kind of feeling when you get very comfortable talking to this certain people. The kind of feeling when they finally decide to walk away from your life, but you still manage to post a smile on your face although deep inside, you're breaking into pieces. The kind of feeling when the both of you coincidentally meet at somewhere else, and post that awkward kind of "hi" or "hello", drifted apart and make your own ways.

As time flies, I soon learn how to embrace the time I have with all these unexpected ones. To ask them to stay in your life is something beyond your own control. Therefore, make use of every seconds you have with them for you will never know when they are going to leave you behind. It's good if they finally commit to stay. I wish all those loved ones would eventually choose to stay. However, facts translate it to something different because some did choose to walk away.

From here, I learn that whatever happens, life must go on. Life does not stop just because they walk away. Happiness does not end at the point where they decide to leave. Happiness lies within you. You know, the saying that asking you to remember to bring your own sunshine wherever you go? That is indeed very true because what's the point of being so dependent on others when it comes to happiness?

Now, you perhaps think that saying is so much easier than done. This is on the other hand, not true at all. I'm typing from a point of view where I had been hurt and break into pieces by someone, anyone, some bunches of childish immature people. However, today, I still manage to have a happy life because I, finally choose to let go and live life to the fullest. After all, my new paradigm of embracing all these unexpected people in life, is not that bad. They still provide me life lessons. They give me memories - both good and bad. They shape me into someone better.

Finally, here comes the endings. I believe things happen for a reason. You just need to wait for the time to reveal what the reasons behind it. Until then, decision is yours whether you're going to make each day counts or rather, turn bitter.

Simple as that.
