FRIENDSHIP FOR THE AGES - a podcast by Nikki Bari

ON SCSP, IT IS MY DUTY, TO BE HONEST. I RECORDED THIS EPISODE WITH MICHELLE ABOUT A MONTH BEFORE SHE TOLD ME SHE NO LONGER WANTED TO BE FRIENDS. AFTER THAT HAPPENED I CHANGED THE DESCRIPTION TO SOME PETTY SHIT. 

IT'S ABOUT 6 MONTHS LATER AND I SPOKE TO MICHELLE TODAY. I FELT I WANTED TO WRITE SOMETHING BETTER, A BIT KINDER TO REFLECT OUR FRIENDSHIP. 

EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON. WE MIGHT NOT UNDERSTAND, NOT LIKE IT, BUT IT'S TRUE. WHILE IT HURT THINKING I LOST A LIFELONG FRIEND, IT NEEDED TO HAPPEN. IT FORCED ME TO LEVEL UP AND BE THERE FOR MYSELF. MICHELLE SHARED WITH ME TODAY THAT SHE HAS ALSO LEARNED AND GROWN ALOT IN THE PAST FEW MONTHS. LITERALLY EVERY EXPERIENCE WE HAVE IN LIFE IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN. 

FRIENDS FIGHT. IT SUCKS. I HATE TO FORGIVE BUT I HAVE GOTTEN SOOO MUCH BETTER AT IT. I WOULD PUT THAT IN CAPS BUT THIS WHOLE THING IS IN CAPS. IT'S NOT THAT I HATE TO FORGIVE, ITS WHEN SOMEONE HURTS ME I DONT WANT TO GIVE THEM THE CHANCE TO DO IT AGAIN. BUT IF IM BEING HONEST, I HAVE ANOTHER FRIENDSHIP THAT WE HAVE FOUGHT AND FORGIVEN EACHOTHER, AND WE ARE SO MUCH CLOSER BECAUSE OF IT. 

IM A SCORPIO SO IT PAINS ME TO ADMIT IT, BUT TIME DOES HEAL WOUNDS. ALSO, A RATIONAL MATURE ADULT UNDERSTANDS ITS BETTER FOR OUR OWN MIND, CLARITY, HEALTH, ENERGY, FOR US TO LET GO AND NOT HOLD ANGER OR RESENTMENT IN OUR HEARTS. 

THROUGHOUT THIS WHOLE "INCIDENT" WITH MICHELLE, I KEPT TELLING MYSELF, EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON AND I NEEDED TO LEARN FROM THIS EXPERIENCE TO BE BETTER AND DO BETTER. IT HELPED ME SO MUCH, SO HOPEFULLY ONE DAY WHEN YOU NEED TO BE REMINDED, THAT HELPS YOU. 

ALL THE BEST <3
