That's Just The Motion...

From strangers, to friends, to strangers again. Isn't that the cycle of most relationships in our lifetime? And when I say relationships I don't necessarily mean romantic ones. I'm including all forms of relationships and bonds we build and break with people. When you meet a person and make that decision to include them in your life, and vice versa, a special thing takes place. You get to know one another: likes, dislikes, fears, joys,etc. Then over time after you get past that intial 'question and answer'phase you grow a sort of comfortability, and hopefully trust, with that individual. They become topic of conversation, experience new things with you and become a part of your memory bank. But, as wilth all things in life, there comes a point when that relationship is tested. And that's the crucial point. That moment when everything is redefined and you, or them, has to make that decision whether to remain involved with the other's life or not. Everyone comes with a certain amount of b.s. When it comes down to it, you have to deicede whose b.s. is worth tolerating. So, look at the people you have in your circle and ask yourself, six months from now, will he/she/they be friends or strangers?
