Thinking out loud

It's funny how it happens.

Adamant about not spending my youth pursuing this aspect of happiness, I swore off getting overly emotionally attached to anyone in particular. Instead, I spread my intense emotional attachments thinly across a myraid of commitments (well, mostly people). I started living the lifestyle of someone I used to despise. Someone who knows everyone but no one in particular. I wasn't unhappy, because I guess that's how things would transition into as I transit into the working world: Casting a wide web of synonymous networks, running your own race and breezing through fleeting relationships.

But you happened.

And I guess I never saw it coming.

How could this have happened given that I swore off getting emotionally attached for the next couple of years?
How could this have happened given that we promised we'd never be one of those fleeting friends we meet in school?
How could someone I met by chance grow to become someone so important to me?

Lastly, how can I let it all go and treat it as nothing but another fleeting occurence.

Nevertheless, I guess everything that happens to you happens for a reason. And everything that happens is a meaningful learning experience for you to leverage from and grow from there.

Still, thank you for the past 3 months, constant. Here's my farewell bid to constant because constant's not so constant anymore.
