first clan

its funny how the most unlikely people will come up to you and tell you what should or should not be done.

rizal is an example. we had a short talk that night over on msn, and rizal commented that i had been absent from many gatherings. in summary, he asked me to not stay away and to keep in touch. and if possible, go out with the guys more.

isn't it funny, how long i have been away from people like rizal, and yet receive that reaffirmation that they are still around and that they care? i am thankful for these reminders of do's and dont's... but sometimes i really need my time away. just that short session would suffice for me.

my innermost circle of friends comprise of these kind of people. our friendship is tight enough to withstand long periods being away from each other, and yet when we do meet up, it is as though we never spent any time apart at all.

but i fear for this clan. certain actions, when taken too far and with a lot of assumptions, may only serve detriment to the clan. some people in the clan have fallen from grace, and though we still do keep in touch, these people have a lot of work and apologies to do, before they reinstate themselves.

and i am once again, caught in between.
