Ramblings of a fool.

Standing on a hill overlooking the town, the teen thought to himself, 'Finally i'm out of this dreaded town. I'm gonna leave this place and make it big!'. His friends all begged him to stay, to stay and have fun. Even his best friend, said to him she couldn't bear to see him go and begged him to stay but he refused. He left that town, coming to the city, and he made it big. In the world of business, corrupt or not, unscrupulous or not, he made it big. But in the big city, he guarded himself from everyone else, he never had a friend for more than a week in fear that he would be betrayed, and he, betrayed many others. He was a successful man. One day while on his car, he noticed the route back to his old home. He decided to visit. Now, standing on a hill overlooking the city, the man wondered what happened to the little town he once knew. But a more overwhelming feeling filled him, he wanted to see his friends. Rushing down to the town, he checked out their usual haunts but couldn't find them. Finally he saw them all gathered together at a cafe, he went over to say hi. Somehow, he couldn't relate to them anymore, their topics became nothing more than childish ramblings, as they talked about the old times. But he knew someone who would accept him as he is, someone who he shared his thoughts and feelings with, someone who would make him feel at home again. He went to his best friend's house, knocked on the door, she came out and smiled,' Hi, who are you looking for?' He was shattered, all he said were,'I'm sorry, wrong house.' and walked away. The pang in his chest, he couldn't believe she would forget him. There was nothing left for him here.

He had it all, but threw it all away. Time changes people, we can never ignore that. But perhaps the only thing we can possibly do, is to make the right choices. Without regrets.
