Note: The video is in the post below this one.
So the lyrics to "The Call" by Regina Spektor are still in my head. It was the closing song for the new Narnia movie Prince Caspian. Actually, it made me cry when I was watching the movie. There a lot of lines of that mean something to me.
Just because everything's changing doesn't mean it's never been this way before
The fact that so much in my life is no longer the same when compared to only a few months ago is very shocking to me. It's hard to believe that my old best friend is gone, but I've actually gotten used to it.Whenever someone said that word, Liezl came to mind. Now, it's not her. That's how it used to be, it wasn't just Liezl that was once the whole center of my being. When we were friends, I didn't really talk to any other people, I stopped. Now, I started that again. That's how it used to be.
All you can do is try to know who you're friends are as you head off to the war
I guess that the battle we fight in this life can be likened to a war. Do we ever really win? How do we know which side we're fighting on, and even if that's the right one? I wish that I could tell. But I think that it's more of a decision based on character, the kind that we can't change to suit what we want at the time. It's a side that we've chosen already, in an unbiased fashion, and we stick to it, whether or not we know it, because we can't change when we are true to the very essence of ourselves. It's hard to know who's fooling you and who isn't, and maybe that the struggle we face in learning that is also a part of this war we wage as we live. Sometimes, betrayal is the type of thing that offsets that balance, and shows you who truly are the people in your life that should matter.
You'll come back, when it's over. No need to say goodbye
No matter where life takes us, I think that there's something to be said about coming full circle, even to some degree. We may not always realize it, but there are points in this journey of life that we make a turn, go through a few things, and when we come out of it, we find ourselves in a similar state. We may not always end up 100% in the exact location, but I"think that there are times when we haven't looked back and seen exactly how far we came in order to realize something that we knew all along. Realizing and knowing are two different things, in my opinion. You can know something for years without ever realizing that you knew it. It's the type of thing that the mind baffles us with,
But just because they can't feel it too doesn't mean that you have to forget
People are always telling me that I should completely forget about Liezl and not worry about her. Well,I feel that I have to forgive her, that I should. And although I've been told not to anyways, I really do feel that I can. And now I conclude with tht feeling that I'm going against what people tell me, and I will figure out how to forgive Liezl Francisco for everything.It will be hard, but it doesn't mean that I have to forget about everything, just forgive her.
