Ideal Relationships.

There will come a moment in all of our lives when we no longer feel included in people's lives, in groups that used to be our primary source of entertainment and belonging. I want to say that it is unfair that people move on with their lives without us but it isn't, really, is it? They don't exclude you from their lives on purpose most of the time, they just find themselves in situations that are different, situations that require them to give more of their time and attention to the challenges that they are facing. I know of tons of mothers and fathers falling out with their children over such issues. I know of best friends going on separate ways because they feel insulted that they are no longer in the picture, but it is all completely unnecessary. The relationship doesn't have to be bitter and sour, it doesn't have to demand apologies from eachother. It can be a little more mature and understanding. It can be about being happy about being in eachother's company when life does permit it. Too ideal? I don't think so.

Love, peace.
