Today after a long long gap we got to hang out with a bunch of old dear friends whom we had lost couple of years back. It was very nice to catch up. The initial awkwardness aside – great food and drinks really helped. It was fun. It was kinda nostalgic and also left us with a feeling of warmth. Hope this attempt would work this time.
I think, in my life there have been 2 kinds of responses to these conflict based situations.
- Give up on situation
- Give up on people
Giving up on situations was easy. Totally mental and never felt any emotions. Giving up on people has been hard. I think it’s hard because it’s connected to the heart. There were so many times in my life where I was faced with decision where I had to give up on a friend. It was becoming too toxic. It was painful. They also leave too deep a scar. No matter how many times I have done it, it never gets easy.
So here is to hope that we would be successful this time.
