I was looking at the recent pictures of people i know of and a wave of sadness came over me. I realized that those people used to be close friends of mine. But now, I don't even know their cell numbers nor have seen them for the past 5 years or more. What happened?
I guess distance makes the heart grown fonder isnt true for me. I have been away from my hometown for the past 10 years. Four years in Davao during my highschool days then the rest in Los Baños during my college years. I never communicated with my elementary friends whenever I was around during breaks. I don't know why. I never thought of it until now.
One example would be my elementary friends, my classmates in gradeschool. I have been in the honors class since grade 2 up to grade 6. Students belonging in the honor class usually are the same kind each year. So it is like we have known eachother for almost 4 years. I have had my share of autograph book signing, picture takings and exchanging secrets and crushes. We sort of drifted when we reached highschool. Actually I parted from the group since I studied in a different school more like in a different place from the city. In the first year, I was diligent in sending letters to them in general. I would send it thru the school addressed to everyone, asking them how they are and telling them how I am. Anyway the previous years after, well I stopped making letters. I don't know why. Maybe just got tired of writing.
Another group would be my ballet classmates. Yes I used to dance. I was in my toes when I left the school. Reason for leaving is the same as above. I chose to study in a prestigious state highschool in Davao City. The idea of leaving my friends behind didn't bother me that much before. I never thought of it until now.
