If in a relationship something screws up, do you "throw in the towel" and cut that string immediately? When do you attempt to rebuild the relationship even when those 2 dreaded words
are uttered? When is it worth to try and piece back the broken pieces?
When do we listen to "conventional" wisdom or those with experience, keeping in mind that every relationship is vastly different from each other.
Yep, many at times we say go for a clean break. Personally I used to concur with such statements, but it is said that when you face something first hand, whatever you believed in might not be what you actually do. What you actually really believed in deep in your heart will in fact show by your actions - whether it looks foolish or not.
It is the same thing in work or in other aspects of life. When you feel that some tasks are after over some time horrendously difficult but have taken ginormous amounts of effort so far, do you say "no" and have a break with it and let your efforts "go to waste" or do you persist on?
It is really interesting to see how many thoughts and opinion can be generated from something as trivial as a simple break up; be it yours, mine or even the couple in the drama shows.
It is quite heartening to know that there are a group of people who are there to catch you when you fall. I realised I have been a hermit for a long while in school, being quite insular to my friends' activities. Knowing that someone is there who cares and concerns for you is really soothing and I am grateful for the audience that follows this blog - even if I did not, do not or know that you read this.
As what she has told me, "Do not wait for people to come into your circle, go into their circle if you want to be included in one." I think this sentence speaks volumes, and is a wake up call to my aloof attitude. I think I have neglected a group of very old friends for quite some time, and I really had a great time reliving memories spent with them. It is worth the investment in time and effort.
