Ruin

Life aint always peachy.
But it definitely does have some beautiful extraordinary moments.

I've come across a few people in my life who've seemed to have it hard. 
But over the years for certain particular peeps, enough time has past to make me see the whole picture.
The people that seem to constantly attract terrible things or terrible people in their lives and it seems to be the world is against them .... there appears to be one constant. Themselves. 
You can exit their life, then years and years pass, and when you see them again, nothing has changed, the same misery, the same woe-is-me, the same blame of others around them, the same victim role and it is never.... ever their own fault. 
It is pretty sad really, but amazingly it is quite freeing to not put up with it anymore. 

Friendship is a connection you have, the quality, not a tolerance, and definitely not defined by the quantity of time you have known them. You may have connected with them for an instant in time, but that does not mean you connect now or for all the years. Simply put, it ran it's course.

2010 was the most loneliest year for me, but out of that, I was pushed out of my shy comfort zone and out came amazing things and wonderful people, and has made me cherish and appreciate those that I have even more. 

I've never liked the cheese-ball movie and book : Eat, Pray Love. 
But this quote stands true to me:

"Ruin is a gift, Ruin is the way to transformation." - Elizabeth Gilbert.
