Life and Death

I was looking out my window when a a bird landed in the tree right next to the window. I don't know how it happened but I started thinking of the way life goes on; how people are in your life for a lesson, a season, or a lifetime. Fate brings in these people to help you through life whether you want them or not. They help you see what you couldn't see before, they help you get over the brick wall that you've been scared to pass. The lesson ones never stay long enough for a real connection, but you always remember them because they are the ones who left something for you to remember them by. They leave you a memory that will always stay in your mind or they leave a special nick knack that you can always place where you got it and why. The seasonal ones are harder. They develop a bond of trust that makes you think that they will be a lifetime one, when it turns out that all they are there for is to be in the back drop and provide comfort and support, but in the end leave and never come back. Fate may allow you to mingle with these people once or twice more, but not enough to where you could for that bond of trust, even if you tried. The lifetime ones are there with you through the thick and thin. They are there from the start, or maybe they come right in the middle of your life, but stay with you till death. These are the people you have to watch out for. Everyone eventually leave you, or you end up leaving them. Life is funny like that. It lets you love and become friend and then right when everything is going great, it ends. Life sends you on these little journeys that show you that your life is great and everyone loves you and nothing could be better then this and then when you're least expecting it, someone leaves, which sends you into a pit of despair and sadness. I write this blog as the bird sits there. And not surprisingly, the bird just flew away. My point exactly. Everyone and/or everything eventually leaves.
