come and go

Friends come and go… as we move on to different phases of life, we meet and part with different people.

Like a drop of water, falling from the sky. First it move along the underground water path of the top mountain.

As it move downwards, it join the rest of the water droplets, forming a small stream. As days pass, it finally ended up in the big wide ocean.

Along its way, some of the other water droplets might be lost. A boy or  a cow might have taken them to quench their thirst. Or a plant might have absorb them to provide the beauty of the forest.

Some might have risen to the sky, carried by the warmth of the sun.

As some have gone, others might have joined in.

A pee or two might have added the numbers.

Or the juice of the decaying fruit by the river will spice up the rest of the water droplets.

Nevertheless, they are or were part of the great river.

The river which eventually reach the big wide ocean.

In life, we truly will meet all sorts of people. Good or bad, they are beyond our control.

They have their own freewill to do what they choose to to do.

Same like us, we also can choose how we respond to them.

Fire versus fire never do good. It just make us as despicable as them.

Nor do we act like as a goody-two shoo.

Just treat people with respect no matter what we gain in return.

Everyone we meet are our friends. If closer, then they are our neighbours
