until you hear their stories.
then will u understand their anguish.
and the reason behind why tears constantly bombard their eyes.
the truth always hurts somehow.
i gaped at the number of cedarians who walked through the gates of aj today. never in my wildest dreams had i expect the turnover to be so big. elsewhere, others were crying, sharing similar sentiments. and i thot abt wad candice said...abt how life will nvr be the same again no matter where she ends up. and i think abt marion and her tj soccer. and all the big dreams we had for our future when we were still immersed in the sea of blue. all that. snap. gone. in the blink of an eye.
we know that we shld stay strong and unwavered by such odds. but reality has this tendency to slam us in the face. and what's left is often the pieces that are too small to be picked up. but there are always people who have been there and done that. so no matter what, we should stand our ground and be as ever-sturdy as the cedar tree. one swallow does not make a summer.
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. says: sometimes, the most courageous thing to do in life. is not the holding on, but the letting go
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. says: if she thought what she had with hc for a mere 2 months was a strong bond
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. says: tell her to find me, and we'll talk about bonds with AC for 10 + years
and though the grass is often thought to be that much lusher and greener on the other side, i guess we ought to take a backward glance and appreciate what we have a little more. otherwise, the pursuit for greener pastures would be endless. let us press on and walk this path together.
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. says: and u should ask her. did she ever regret cedar
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. says: cause she didnt
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. says: at the end of tjc, she'll tell herself, there's no other way she would have wanted it
and perhaps there would have been no other way we would have wanted ours. a chance is all that we need to give. then perhaps the sky would be this much bluer.
thank you cedar.
