Friends Drift Apart
As painful as it can be, connections fade. They disintegrate and eventually become non-existent in our day to day life. The older I've gotten the more I've accepted this.

It can feel like if you don’t have immediate success or you aren’t gaining a substantial amount of recognition, then it doesn’t matter what you do. It can feel like you shouldn’t bother writing, taking photos, creating a YouTube video, producing music or doing a small art project. You might start wondering if it’s worth your time. It is.
