We all have been hurt at one point in our life. Each and everyone of us react differently. It depends on the personality and our own perspective. Some wouldn't understand, they would think we are over reacting or even overthinking things. Maybe we are suppose to live this hurt and taste what it feels to be broken and shattered. So we can learn and survive this cruel world. Hurt makes us grow up and become a better version of us.

They say time heals all wounds. That's right, I totally believe it. I've been hurt several times by my friends and even my family. Going back to that moment, it was hard and I cried, it was difficult to forgive and forget, but eventually I moved on. We have to move on maybe force ourselves to act tough because in the end of the day we become stronger and wiser.
Dear readers,
I want to share my story with you all. We were three friends. So close to each other. We used to hang out and share secrets. Two girls and one boys. Dunno what exactly happened at that time, I didn't fight with them. Out of nowhere, they stopped talking to me. The situation stayed like that for about two month. I tried to talk to them but all my attempts went in vain. It was the end of school year. We were going to graduate. I never imagined our friendship would end up in such a way. I was really lonely. I felt broken. Then I decided that I had to confront them one last time. It was the last week of school. I saw them standing at the lockers , i approached them, as soon as they saw me, they walked away.

Until I heard from one of our classmates that both of my friends are in a relationship. They kept it a secret. They are love birds. It seems that my friend Rose was jealous from me, she made my best friend Sam stop talking to me. He was my best friend but she thought I was a threat. He was so blind that's why he ignored me. He was her minion. I felt as if being stabbed. He was never a real friend. A friend wouldn't ruin a long friendship for the sake of a relationship that wouldn't stay for long. And I was right, they broke up before school ended at the last day. Sam tried to talk to me after that, I heard what he had to say. Well it was lame excuses. He knew Rose wasn't thinking right, she was just jealous. He did nothing to stop her, he just did what she wanted. He couldn't do anything but he knew he was making a big mistake. He realized that when it was too late.

I never saw him after that, we went at different collages. I changed my phone number and my address. I was busy working and studying. Three years had passed away.One day, I received a message from Sam.
Hi Zouba,
It had been long time, how are you? Hope all is good. I was trying to call you but I figured out you changed your phone number. I know I made a lot of mistakes and I know I wasn't a good friend. I hurt you but I am truly sorry. I can never forgive myself ! I have a guilty conscious. I want to talk to you. I have to see you. Call me!

Yes, Sam left his phone number. I couldn't call him. It was three freaking years why now! I was mean,I didn't call. I wanted him to be guilty. He waited three years, he can wait for three more days. But after two days, he send another message.
I know you read my previous message. It seems you changed. I don't know you to be the mean type of girl. I am truly sorry.
With that I called him, he was expecting me that's for sure. Our phone call lasted for a couple of minutes, it didn't sound weird, we were joking. I told him I forgive him. He was hurt and his feelings were mutual to mine. He was angry at himself.
We talk every now and then, he changed and I changed too. Things wouldn't go back the same way it was but we'll always care for each other.

Today when I remember all the things that happened, a smile finds its way on my lips. Things will always happen. This is life, we need to learn from our mistakes. So we can evolve.

I learned there will always be bad things that would affect us. That will hurt us. However, it is not the end of the world. We can make this work. Things happen for a reason. You can control hurt or at least do stuff to express yourself.

Whatever you do:
Don't stay alone for a long period of time.
Don't think a lot. Thinking wouldn't change the fact of what happened.

All is in the past, it is gone.

Be patient and don't forget you are a strong person and nothing can make you sad or ruin you. You might be touched a bit but it wouldn't change your life.

Nothing can hurt me. You can be like that too.

Stay strong and keep smiling because life is short and nothing is worth disturbing our peace of mind.
