Time heals all wounds and eventually fades all feelings.

Nothing lasts forever. Even things that one used to think could have lasted forever, probably would still end because it is just too hard to defy nature's laws. Perhaps there are some who are strong enough to fight against nature, but most of us including myself probably just cannot. I am not above nature.

When people decide they have the right to think in a certain way, and cannot see other perspectives, then it becomes a matter of agreeing to disagree. Yet it is tough for most to agree to disagree. Especially when values misalign. Not just random differences, but differences that hit the core of our being. That is possibly when people fall out of friendships and relationships. Even bonds as deep as mother and son can break because of these misalignments in values. Just like how a spine misalignment can cause severe discomfort like nerve impingement and muscle wastage. We either have to fix it or suffer the pain and life impediments. Fixing it means either re-aligning the spine through manipulation techniques, or in more serious cases, an actual replacement of the vertebra. In life some people, perhaps luckily, are able to place their feet in another's shoes, see from new perspectives as they mature, and re-align their values. But many also choose to replace whatever does not align. Of course, it becomes increasingly difficult when this re-alignment is, more often than not, one sided.

Sometimes people just give up because there is no visible solution. Some people try one time too many and end up losing hope. Sometimes cutting things off seems like the best solution for all parties, because enough is enough. Enough of explaining oneself, enough of going through emotional turmoil, enough of having to suffer instead of living the life one deserves. Because how could love be possible if one's happiness often becomes the other's source of unhappiness? How could love be possible if there is often a fear of communicating? How could love be possible if there is no longer the desire to share everything and anything? Even tripping on a stair becomes something that one just swallows and forgets because one no longer yearns for care and concern from the person that no longer aligns with you.
