all good memories are matters.

I’m that typa person who’s hard to forget good memories. Either the person had left or not exist in my life anymore but if they had brought me some beautiful or good memories then it must be hard to forget. I’ll remember them forever till my last breath. They might have been one of the happiest part of my life and I can’t refuse to forget them. They used to be a part of my life journey.

They all forever rent in my mind. Although, I’m happy with my own happiness right now, but still without them on the past I am nothing like now. They all matters memories that I burried since long ago. Sometimes, when I just look at the window of the bus as I went to my university, I suddenly remember them who already left behind or someone who’ve been one of the part of my life but no longer exist.

I never choose to forget. I choose moving forward instead. Imo, forgetting is only an excuse for someone to claimed that they already moved on when the fact that people aren’t move on but they’re move forward. So I just keep live my life for moving forward since they left. All of them have it own lesson for myself. Turns out they all who help teaching me to be a better person. All of the good memories are matters. It’s not that I never moving on from them, but I remember them as a lesson. Because I am nothing without them.

As I grow older I understand why the statement of ‘People come and go’ is very common thing. We can’t pleased everyone to stay forever in our lives. Like us too, they are moving forward and maybe we’re just a small part of their life’s journey in the past.

When I daydreaming or just go somewhere alone, it brings me to the unusual thoughts. Those thoughts that never crossed our minds before but they suddenly appear. And what funny is.. those thoughts that oftenly appear was actually come up from them who are no longer in our lives or something (or many things) that are no longer ours.

I thought it’s very common if we still remember them as a good memories. Remember them as a lesson for us. Almost everyday some people in our lives come and go. The fact that we never know when they’ll come or they’ll leave us so sudden. We never know when it happend to us.

Because we’re human being that only moving forward and we never could begging someone to stay longer in our lives. The older I get, I never complain if someone’s choose to leave from my life or just not stay in touch with me again. I am happy with my own life right now. I don’t give a fuck about who wants to stay and how many people that choose to stay in my life. I am happy with my own happiness right now. I am totally grateful for that.

Begging someone to stay in our live is tiring. I don’t have any circles right now and I genuinely happy with that. But if friends, I have some that I thought I feel close to them. Normalize that we don’t have to stay in touch with them errday. There’s a time when you’re just have to ask how’s their life update or just have a small talk with them.

I never thought it was such a big deal. If you realised that your life surrounded by love and joy then you won’t worry if they will leave or they suddenly keep a distance from you. You’ll get a moment when you don’t ever mind if they choose to not be on your part of life anymore. Because you realised that’s how’s life supposed to be work.
