Leave It All Behind

I got some surprising news today.

I found out one of my closest friends broke up with his girlfriend over the holidays and when i asked him why, he just replied "it was coming, we drifted apart and it was inevitable". they dated
for almost a year. and i was shocked because before this they were so in
love. they went everywhere together and always sat together in class. cracked up jokes while the lecturers were teaching. it broke my heart to know that this good friend of mine was hurting and no one knew.

then one of my friends from college told me that a couple of our friends
from his class (who i also know and have become great friends with)
recently broke up a couple of months ago. they dated for 2 years and have
always been my role models when it came to relationships. i'm still shocked this 'golden couple' decided to call it quits. i mean you'd think that after everything you've been through for the past 2 years, you'd compromise everything to be together and in love. And that just maybe there's always something worth fighting for.

i guess not.

What happened today made me realised that not everything is permanent and life's too short to be
wondering about the 'what ifs' and assuming things that aren't there. Even the strongest relationships could end if it wasn't meant to be.

whatever doubts i had before in my relationship are gone for now because i know life's too short to be hating and fussing about everything. I hope whatever problems we have are never bad enough for me to leave my love. everything that we've sacrificed to be with each other, i can't throw it all away just like that. I gotta fight until there's nothing left to fight for...
