A "Super" Blast from the Past

Countless of times, i have written about my friends and how much i adore them. And i still do. And i want to thank all of them again for being in my life and making it worthwhile. I am happy because of them. And i want to thank them for letting me feel that i am also important in their lives. :)

Last night, the weirdest thing happened...i got a call from an old friend (someone from my ex-barkada). It was seriously a strange, strange thing. Only last week, i was able to email with another ex-kabarkada. She moved to NYC last year and it was only last week when we started keeping in touch. But in my eyes, my relationship with my friend from NYC had always been ok. My relationship with this other friend though was a bit different. I only talked/saw her once this whole year (a classmate's wedding). And i was on the phone with her. I remember when it used to be hella awkward; when i never wanted to go to events where i knew they were going to be at. But last night, we talked about a lot of things. She shared a few things that were bothering her. We talked about my reasons for leaving the group. We talked about the other people from the group and my relationships with these people. We talked about old memories (the trips, the boys-chad?:P, the problems...etc.). We also talked about my life now and how leaving the group made me a stronger, better and happier being. She told me that she was happy for me that i am where i am now. And it felt really good hearing that from her because i've known her since i was 6! We grew up together (literally!). So i was really glad that i was able to talk to her. I know it will never be the same. I don't want it to be. I also know that deep down i will never want to go back to that group. But i truly felt at peace after i talked to her. I know that she will share the things that i said with the group (she asked if she could and i said yes). I know that some questions are still left unanswered. But i believe i have said most if not all the things that i've been meaning to. No regrets. It's done. And that'll do.


*today i am thankful for people who care and show that they do
