So I have as a kid always moved from one city to another . Changing 8 schools in that process . Whenever something went wrong anywhere with friends or teachers , I had this mantra ” hey there , you won’t see them after 6 months , so what’s the big deal . Don’t feel bad , you are never going to see them again ” and that has always continued .
So today in college , if at times I have this feeling that I am drawing away from my best friends (it has started suddenly ) I use this same mantra .
But a part of me is tired using it . It scares me that I am so used to running away from feelings . Though I am a person who doesn’t run from challenges, instead I takesthem with all my heart ..
Its just really confusing . Its as if I give myself these timelines , coaxing myself into believing that its a small patch and then I will be away somewhere else .
I believe sometimes that I don’t consider any city to be home, as if I don’t feel that I belong there . That whenever I am anywhere I am thinking about the next place .
But I want to live in the present not in the unknown future .!
