Friendships are like the weather: sunny,rainy or windy.

I have not been ranting in a while (in my posts,not really in general as you know me), but time is up. This blog topic will not be part of the general rant but something like 'personal-issues-rant'. Yes, one of my favourites and one of your least favourite (not like you-readers exist).
It is far from being a big deal to me, because this is not the first time it happened to me so I will try to make it sound a bit witty-funny, not the whinny-funny.

Friends.

No, I will not write about the well-known TV show. I will talk about my rich and deep experience with various people to whom I referred as 'friends'. I had like 2-3 close friendships in different periods of my life and they all faded with time. You can blame the weather, the personalities or the society, I stopped caring long time ago. All of these people enriched my life in a certain period of time and helped me grow as myself now. We shared funny moments and I still keep the memories. Sometimes I still talk with only one of them  (so you can get the picture who of them thought the same about me). I have never been the kind of a person who is circled with a large group of people, but I did my best to keep even the few friends I had. However, with time people depart from each other and I am not going to blame them for that. People change and have different interests and priorities. It is highly normal.

The thing is that I can not lie to myself that I am not bothered when some of my friends decide to move out of my life. However, I know their reasons for that, because I know them pretty well for all these 7-ish years. Friendship means different things for different people. I value friendship a lot, but some people consider friendship as fun and something you can always have,always gain without any attempt of developing it or caring for it. I have a friend from this type and I am sorry that we came to be apart for whatever reasons I do not know, but I do suspect. Anyway, this might gets me a bit upset, but you can't really be upset about something you predicted long time ago.

You should just get over it and remind yourself that friends are not forever, nothing is forever, we are not for ever. Therefore, dear readers (if you really exist) value your friendships, your family, and yourself. You can be upset for a while for lost causes, but never forget that it's not always the most important thing.
