Friends that turned stranger


Friendsđź’“: The word itself carries a millions of emotions, memories, laughter and all of those silly things you do with that person.
You gradually grow with that person, step by step creating moments....spending some good times and rough times. It all goes hand in hand. Friends create a different landscape in which you want to be yourself all of your life. 
But over the time....as we drift apart in our own personal lives...things change. You no longer know what that person is going through and what is going on with their life. In the mean time, numerous things take part in all of these and somehow you are left behind in your own chaos.  
As a part of growing up, I realized it is not that easy to hold onto people as it was in the childhood. Adulting brings adulteration in our thoughts and emotions. Sooner or later, you become stranger to those who were once the important part of you life, with whom you made promises to be together forever.

One such thought for some people in my life who went strangers from being my friends.
