Patient. Understanding. Gentle. Wise

Heyyyyyyyyooooooooooo
The past few days have been a huge eye opener for me.
It really has shown me who my true friends are, and what people truly have in their hearts.
People usually dont tend to realize how what they say or do ends up in ways that can really change someone or change their views and thoughts about you, and you may also end up losing that persons defence for you. You may not realize it now, but just wait a while...wait a while and maybe if your lucky enough, you'll realize what you've lost before its to late. If your part of the normal human population, then you'll realize once its to late. Once it's to late to get that person back. Maybe thats when you realize that, that one particular person, just that one person could have made a huge difference in your life. A huge positive difference. And you find out that the only reason you went against him...the only reason you misunderstood him, was because you never really knew him. There was a time that you would tell him anything, and you find out you gave it up. You gave it up for what? All for a new comer. All for someone that hurt you before but now your best friends with. You ignored your long lasting friends. The very people who withstood the test of time with you. Who were always there when you were down. Who were always at your place when you were bored. Who always helped you when you needed a problem. Who went to beat up that very new comer whom you are now friends with. I really cannot believe how you throw away that very long lasting friendship, all over a new comer...Even when people break up they usually atleast wait a while until they start dating again, so shouldn't that be the same thing for friendships? Especially since the person that you are now friends with hurt you and all of your best friends, and at that one time you yourself said that you hated him. You despised him. You thought he was garbage. How do you go from hate..to love over just a couple months of summer? How do you go from saying "I hate him so much" to calling him "bhess"?
Just answer me this one question. Please just answer me this one question. "How"
$#@!
