Going back 5 years, I worried about things that, yes were important but I also didn’t realise nor believe things could be different.
I remember M James told me that in 2 years time, I wouldn’t even know what I was worrying about and that’s completely true.
I met E in the corridor of my first secondary when I was 14. I was in a rough ol place back then!
If she didn’t say “Hey Lewis!” I wouldn’t be here today, no joke. For that, and other things – I am a strong believer that everything happens for a reason.
Those two words have changed my life. I would never have made so many memories, learnt to relax or even be alive.
I’m focusing on that moment. She was walking with a friend and to her, it was a simple gesture.
5 years on, our lives have changed and we are still great friends.
I have in my mind that this is the end of the road, that next Wednesday (when we see one another safely ofc!) will be the last time ever. But in reality, yes – we will see each other less often but we will still talk.
I’m a sucker for running to the end of the line and panicking.
Just because you’re at the end of the line, that doesn’t mean it’s over.
