If You Never Try, You'll never Know

My very good friend and I have gone for about 3 months without seeing or speaking to each other. It was really strange because when we were not living in the same city, we spoke at least 3 times a week and now we live 15 minutes away from each other and we struggle to touch base with each other...

Anyway, so yesterday we hung out for a bit. It was nothing special at all; we just had MacDonald's and fell asleep to some reruns - I ended up sleeping over. But, that short time that we had together was the best I think I've ever had in a really long time. When you go through a tough time, you often isolate yourself from the people you love in an attempt to protect them from the worst of you. While this isolation is good for retrospection, losing touch with people who know you best is not in your best interest, because it is these very people who drag us out of our black abysses and into the light, just by being around you, all we have to do is reach out to them...

I'm never going to allow myself to wallow  again. It's not good for my sanity.
