As I stand here, on this waypoint in my 15 years of life, I observe the people, my friends around me.
People are growing older (but not necessarily wiser!), slower, more crumbly. My friends are changing right in front of my eyes; some for the better, others going back down the road. Appearances, characters, attitudes. I have friends switching ambitions, goals, I have friends tweaking the meaning of life, I have friends no longer believing or switching faith. Friends growing prettier all the time, becoming smarter, more studious now that they know what they want from life.
I know because it's happening to me too. Feeling like a different person everytime something new happens. Changing and morphing right in front of my very eyes.
It feels like knowing a different person everytime I see my friends. I think, hey, since when did she eat Beef? And then knowing from her that she has just renounced Buddhism recently.
Suddenly, we are all in the companies of strangers once more.
