Change of eras

The modern technology can cause incredible moments and feelings.
Especially while travelling you meet someone, talk, connect, become friends and have an amazing time.
Every day you have the choice what you wake up and get another choice what to do with these hours of lifetime your day gifts you. And so you decide to sacrifice these hours for that other person you met, it may even be a group, you do cool stuff together, share memories and the good times.
Unfortunately there comes a time when the plans do not match anymore and you have to move on. As you are connected via social media it gives you the opportunity to keep on playing a role in the other person’s life, even when it is smaller.
You can see each other’s uploads, text, even call and share the cool new experiences you make.
With some people you keep up this contact for years and sometimes even meet up again after the long time, always remembering what you have experienced together. 
There comes a day, you scroll through Facebook, relaxing your Sunday morning in bed, where suddenly this former friend pops up on your feed. You have not spoken for ages, everything is different now yet you still both remember the times you shared. Reading what that person is doing now, how her life changed, and how her environment developed. It takes only a quick message, asking how each other are doing, and everything is like it used to be. Time can change and even people, but mostly if you had something in common back then, you will always have.
In life you always have different eras, and it changes quicker than you realize. People come and go, experiences you make every day and impressions you get. It is up to you to process this and make something out of this big gift. Change is the nature of things, as a grown up person you need to adapt to all of them, which is probably the biggest challenge. But accepting that you have to live with constant changes in your life is the first step to become a better person. The more changes you have in your life and therefore are able to adapt without collapsing and falling into depressions the more healthy your brain is and you are ready for life.
