holding hands

have you had or held onto something for a long time?
for example; a ring, a bracelet, or maybe even someone else's hand.
and what’s the feeling we get once we lose our rings, or that grip?
it feels weird, awkward, and even... empty.

but the funny thing is, after all those complaints and frantic search for it,
sooner or later we get used to the change.

i think that's the same feeling when changes happen in life.
you have something or someone for such a long time, but when it's gone,
it's gone.

but it's interesting how we react to the change of environment. some replaces the lost ring, while others just move on without them.
how we react to the change of environment can affect us in a good or bad,
but that choice is ours to make.
the funny thing is, change -although it comes with all sorts of weird emotions and thoughts- gives us a chance to get to know ourselves better, and a chance to grow.
