How do you handle change?
Specifically, how do you cope with things when you yourself begin to change, and you feel yourself pulling away from the things and people that you used to find comfort in?
How do you tell friends that view you one way that you aren't that way anymore?
How do you tell people that your beliefs have changed, or are changing, without making it sound like you are judging them for staying the same?
How do you let people go when they refuse to let you change, when they insist on you being the person you used to be?
How do you fill the spots in your life, the holes left by the people that you have to move on past?
These are the questions that we have been dealing with lately. The struggle to grow and evolve and become a better person while dealing with some people that scoff and scorn. The struggle to explain to your friends that yes, I used to feel like you do now, but my beliefs have changed, are changing.
And then when you get past that sometimes necessary culling of people that are in your life, what then? Now you have empty spots, relationships gone, situations where you need people to count on once more, and now those people are gone.
