When it's time for them to go, let them...

One of the truths about living a good life is the sad reality that your greatness will be uncomfortable for many of those you once shared dreams with. I always believed that my sole purpose on this earth was to bring hope and comfort to the lives of those around me, however lately I have been slapped with the mother of all rude awakenings, yes I have had those people who gave given me the best moments in life and yes they have seen me through my most painful and weakest times and for such reasons I believed that we were made for each other.  What changed? What could I have done? I sat down and asked myself this questions as I saw their faces look on without even a glimpse of interest as I shared my achievements, could the sudden shift in my life be the reason for such cold reactions, or is it because we prayed together, shared ambitions and dreams and wanted the same things?  We may have done all that but the sad truth is that we didn't  have the same hunger, my hunger was too zealous for me to ignore, it consumed my very soul, it ate away the life in me and I had to survive, yes I had to let the fire burning inside of me to run wild.  And when the time came for me to choose between my hunger and your loyalty, I chose me. And for those reasons I will understand if you walk away and never look back, as I am the one who opened the door.  I won't hold it against you if you never send me postcards or even reply to my messages and I hope you will find it in your heart to forgive me.

Good bye my love, my sister and my friend, you loved me, cried with me and Fed me when I was hungry, your love I'll forever cherish, I'm sorry I couldn't keep you and I pray that those you have will...

Love always
your disloyal friend
