It is what it is

Sometimes, it takes a word, a phrase or a line for the lightbulb to be switched on in my head

I am always happy when people slap me in the face with the realities of an issue even when
it is being presented in front of my face but i am still blind to it.
It is safe to say that my face is still stinging but i am all the better for it.

Age is no cure for naivity and sadly, i still see things through my ultra-naive specs,
Choosing to see differently even when the facts are being flashed before my face.

In my moment of clarity, i will say that i am not grateful because you choose to stick
around, neither am i thankful for your conversations. I am on the other hand glad that
we can chat and laugh and neither is a favour to me nor a charitable situation.

A re-defining of friendship takes place everytime and the success of this re-definition is
an absolute understanding of our boundaries or lack of. Making friends is a good thing
and on that note i say "welcome to the new improved and re-defined frienship". I am sure
that with this new and better understanding of our friendship, a certain thing will cease
to be an issue.
