The You I Used To Know...
"Times change and people change"
I'm sure you've come across these words before and hopefully you don't know the feelings that come along with it.
I've spent alot of time reminiscing on all the memories that I have from when I was just a kid to even just a few months ago. The person I used to be then and the person I am today. I guess it's true that people change because I am definitely not the same that I was all those years ago.
And the people I knew then, well they're not the same either. It's crazy to think that the people I spent hours catching up with, the ones who I spoke to til 3 in the morning, I haven't even said hello to in months, some even years.
The people I counted on and shared all my secrets with, I haven't seen in years. I watched the picture and videos we took, the crazy conversations we had on paper and the chats still on my phone from ages ago and I remember all the silly fights we had, the games we played, the stories and moments we shared that I haven't forgotten and probably will never forget.
From the people I spent years getting to know in primary school, to the people I just met along the line and got so close to. It's crazy to think that the people who I once spent hours getting to know, I don't really know at all anymore.
We said we'd be best friends forever and our little immature minds believed that. One thing I've learnt along the line is that nothing truly lasts forever, and that's okay because we have a long way in this journey called life and every different chapter in our book will bring about new experiences and characters.
Right now I have all these amazing people around me. A few who have made it through several chapters of my life and hopefully will continue playing those supporting roles and a few who came along in the more recent years and who I know I will always love and remember. I can only hope that they stick around for more chapters but even if life happens and they don't, I know that the difference they made in my life will forever stay in my heart. The feeling they made me feel, the memories we're still making every time we speak. All the laughs, jokes, nicknames, games, stories, songs, dancing, movies, books, fangirling, twinning, every single thing that makes me love life with them in it will forever be with me.
So yeah times change and with that people change but sometimes, just sometimes you're lucky enough that the people around you change with you and stay along for a few more chapters in your amazing story. 💜
