Introspective...

Funny how sometimes life throws you a curveball.
When you least expect it, something changes your entire perspective on a situation.

Sometimes, you find out that someone isn't the person you thought they were…?
Or maybe - they are, which can be disappointing in of itself.

Often it's best not to force an issue. Once you've opened the door - there's no turning back.
Some times things are better left unsaid.

The most difficult thing about having friends is accepting who they are…especially when they aren't necessarily being a friend. Taking a step back and re-evaluating the relationship might help, but sometimes it just boils down to whether life would be as much fun if they weren't a part of it any longer. Often the answer is to just accept the shortcomings and move onwards. Of course assuming that there isn't an malice involved. That can often be a muddy line to see clearly though.

How to know you're making the right decisions in life? You never do.
You just go with your gut - and hope for the best.
Roll with the punches.
And never let them see you sweat.
