A friend

Here's to a friend that I knew almost more than a decade...😁

You are my best friend, my downfall, the person that his presence I questioned a lot to Allah swt and yet a blessing and someone that I am grateful for in this life. I may not say it to you, but I'm just so proud of you and the person you have become. I wish nothing but the best for you. You were just there during one of my bad days and how can I truly forget that? You are the most responsible person I have met, you are kind and a sensible person. I remember that once, we are in a cinema, then you saw my face when I need to sit next to a stranger, then you offered to switch place with me. I really remember the little things that people have done to me because those actions touch my heart, not necesssarily in a romantic way, but in a thoughtful and kind way. 

Since high school you always say to me "I know you lah". Little did you know, I really hated it but I laughed anyways. How can someone knows you when you don't even know yourself? How do you know the inside of me? How did you unmask me? That doesn't make sense to me. I felt betrayed by my own self. Am I that easily readable? But you are so consistent till today the "I-know-you" thing everytime we have a conversation... Except the fact that I laugh more sincerely and "accepting" this time. Maybe you know me after all.... Maybe you know me long before I even knew myself back then.... Well, sorry it took me that long, budz hahah.... 

We were once inseparable, drifted apart, stranger and now become friends again. Life really humbles you down. The fact that you really did not hate for the things I've done before, makes me so grateful that you are that kind of friend. At this point, there are no more lingering feelings, but just two friends that are proud and wants the best for each other. 

As for me. I do not expect a friend to be perfect, because we humans, we make mistakes. As the ground principle that you are a good person, that's enough for me. Its because I believe, that everyone has their trials and challenges, so they will make a decision that maybe good for them but we see as an opposite of it. Its just all about perspectives... You can be a good person, but maybe you are a lil bit stingy, selfish or whatnot (maybe in your journey, life teaches you to be that way, but do believe that attitudes can be improved if you have a strong foundation of being and wanting to be good). But as long as it is still under control and you are not affecting other people so much, then you can work this out, or we can work this out... 

That's the main point of this post, everything is just about perspectives. Imagine that you are the 'north' for a compass, you are seen to be pointed in different directions from different places. Is it the east? Then, the east shall be. Or the west? The west shall be...In other words, someone from the east would point you differently from the west does, eventhough the North is just the same place where they are heading for, right? 

Is this too complicated to be understood? Yes and No. Well, it's just a matter of perspectives. Yes and no to how you perceive it, regardless😝.
