This I Know To Be True

Friends
The first person you meet in any situation is unlikely to last
The "freshman friend" you may see on Instagram years later
You may think back to meeting and thinking "this is my friend"
Then you think back and realize you don't remember when you stopped talking to each other

Heartbreak
You get out on the other side and you are better for it
You ache and grieve and shut out your roommates and your friends
You lie to them for a week, maybe two, not revealing what happened
Until one night you finally break down
You have a lot of ups and downs
You think you are done
But then you meet the person and you realize
You made it out, stronger, better

Adults
Adults don't have it all figured out
People get into their careers sometimes by choice, often by chance
People haven't grown up
They play politics and high school cliques
They lie and they deceive and they cheat
They laugh at your passion and diminish your efforts
Don't let them bring you down
