Sometimes the relationships you have in life- friendships, significant others, blood-ties- are just about the only reason you have for living. When you're at the dead end of a rocky road, stuck in a thunderstorm with nowhere to go, and heck  why not throw in a hideous ogre to fight, you can always count on people who care. 

But then what if they fail you. Then what?

What if that guy who seemed to care suddenly became something else. One day he's spending time with you and you're both having a great time and you really think that this might actually work. But the next he's out partying with his circle of friends, happily smiling for the camera with a girl on his lap. You start to think that hey, some other girl (like the one in his lap) might think that "this" might actually work too. And you know that you don't measure up.
Who's to blame in this case?  Him, because he led you on? The girl, for sitting on his lap? The photographer who posted it on Facebook?  Or yourself, because you knew that this was coming but you still signed up for the heartbreak.

What if that friend who you used to be close with and trusted with your secrets suddenly became distant. Like she decided that she didn't really like you after all. You try to find out what's wrong but she assures you that "nothing is" and "I'm not mad at you, why would I be?". But words are just words and you see right through them. You want things to go back to how it used to be, but you don't know how.
Is time to be blamed for this? Or the lack of?

There are times that I think that we should all just rely on ourselves. Who else is reliable other than you? Yes, there are the people you love but as much as gems and superheros they can be, it's just not humanly possible to be there all the time. And when that happens there's just you.

And God above watching as Earth slowly crumble into ruin, and His people oh-so caught up with saving Earth that they've missed the big picture.

I'm sorry this is such a depressing post. But that's just how life is. Bad things happen so you can be thankful for the good things.
