Waiting and waiting and waiting…
Wouldn’t it be nice if you only think of yourself? Not being dependent on someone for something… Wouldn’t it be nice if you can do things without taking into consideration the people or future events that might get affected by your decisions?
But it doesn’t happen that way. IT NEVER DOES. There is always someone or something that gets affected however trivial or insignificant that decision or action seem to be.
It sure is fun to be independent. And not being able to rely so much on others. It gives you a sense of freedom and fulfillment, as well. But in the end, even you, yourself have to rely on that someone or something, whatever that is. After all, it has been said, NO MAN IS AN ISLAND.
Relationships between people has always been fascinating and complex. You have your colleagues at school or at work. You also have what you call acquaintances. You have friends; despite them being annoying or sweet. And of course, there’s our family.
As your relationship with another person becomes intimate, it becomes tightly linked then you become tightly attached to that person. In the process you develop dependencies. It’s just sad sometimes that too much dependencies lead to higher expectations. And when expectations are not met then well, it gets bitter… sour… Unless, of course, both parties learn to deal with it and let it go.
Relationships are that and everything. And the waiting keeps on going and going. I’m actually waiting for someone to finish up stuff. And I’m just bored at the office right now, wasn’t able to do anything because of some technical problems with our counterparts, yet again. ^_^
