One of my closest friends , let's call her Speed, is undergoing a bereavement - that of her grandfather. She travelled to the other end of the country to celebrate his birthday, which is today and unfortunately he passed away yesterday. Passing away a day before your birthday cannot epitomize having to come full circle anymore than it already does.
My aunt or Cruella De Vil as we like to call her (due to her astounding personality of course) has fought with all her friends or rather her personality doesn't allow her to be friends with anyone for a long gestation period. She has to comb the town to invite people to "The Event", which is to take place in 10 days from today. After having most of her so-called friends decline the invite, she's gone back to where she started from, an old friend whom she hasn't seen or spoken to in years. Who isn't a patch on her socialite, hoity-toity, la-di-da variety yet she needs someone who why not go back to where you started from.
On my own personal front - I have a crush on someone I've known for the longest time. Nemo was someone I went to university with. I've had a crush on him back then too but it wasn't anything to write home about. Today, however, the dynamics have changed - he seems to be making him way to becoming a man of the world from the little confused frivolous boy he used to be and I have become more feminine, shedding my tom-boyish veil. We seem to be sailing smooth alongside each other - not knowing how the ride will turn out I'm going to focus on enjoying the ride :)
What I've conclude is that life has a funny way of coming back to where you start from. If not today - some day it will.
