Evolution changes people — it’s gradual, inevitable, the unchangeable law of life. But what unsettles me is seeing those I once thought unshakable in their wisdom begin to fumble in their steps.
Perhaps it’s the weight of their circumstances. Still, I’ve always believed wisdom doesn’t fade so easily.
My amma often says, “If you have good health and good character, no low in life can break you — you’ll always find a way to rise again.” I hope time shifts in their favor soon, that this storm too will pass.
This morning, I met a few friends before I leave for abroad. Among them was a school friend I had long admired — her wisdom, her clarity, her calm. She had that rare instinct for knowing when to speak up and when to ignore, holding a perfect balance. But today… the change in her struck me hard. For the worse. And I’m still trying to process it.
p.s lol , I have some leisure time only for the next few days before I'm fully packed :p This leisure time I feel I'm spending on futile things.
