Quite a while back, a friend once told me that the 1st thing I should do after she pushes me down to the ground is get up, brush myself off and walk away. Don’t turn around, or check for wounds and bruises, just walk away as those wounds will eventually heal. I never really got what that friend meant up to now but the last few days really got me thinking. How can someone I title as “my friend “say that to my face? I suppose what Matty meant was, don’t concern yourself with people like me as it’s just not worth it. Well, I have never been the type to shun a person but maybe she was on to something, those words were at most hurtful but I know deep inside that she means well and just wants me to be happy. Now here I am, more mature and hopefully wiser, still trying to get up and walk away. You know that pain and anguish you feel when you trip and fall? Now imagine if you fell and it was because you were pushed by your close, doesn’t it suck? Never in my life have I been told to move on in such away but looking back on it, I think I owe Matty for that push...
If there’s one thing I learned this pass year, it’s that when you start walking away with wounds you’ll eventually find other people to patch you up and maybe that’s what Matty meant and I now realize that(literally , just now..Really). I can’t believe it took me this long to realize what Matty said. I suppose I was on the ground that long.
So Matty from the bottom of my heart thank you, thanks a lot and I mean that. It’s after I got up and started walking that I realize what you said and meant and I’ll definitely take that with me. You thought me to not dwell on the pain for too long
