I am...Changed

I'm not really sure why I chose today to write on this topic..but again..this is my therapy..i think about how much people change whether from day to day or over years..and i tell people all the time that i am glad that i am a different person than i was..because over the years..i have changed...ALOT... in a way that i can recognize how i react differently to situations etc..and how if i were the "old" me..that things would have happened alot differently...

define: change-verb-1. to make the form, nature, content, future course, etc., of (something) different from what it is or from what it would be if left alone. 2. to become transformed or converted.

so many times..after being in a long relationship..when u move on.. the "new" guy/girl asks..."why would they let u go(u let them go)?..u are such an awesome person and have all this and that to offer"..but they dont see what it took to get u there...the "new" person gets the benefit of all the hard work that was put into MAKING u that person...u were there patiently waiting thru the hard times as u grew and evolved into who u are now..

then they ask..then why arent u with them anymore?..if u have evolved into this great person..why did u leave?...sometimes because u are changed...the things that drew u together no longer do, or may even push u apart...u can still love and appreciate that person for who they are and what they helped mold u into..but thats not always enough to fix what got broken along the way...

Never regret something that once made you smile. ~Unknown
..until next time
