I pondered. Pondered on the difference between work and study life. There isn't many differences. They are typically the same. Yet. The people around you isn't the same. They are different. Human behaviour typical of a working adult is much different from the behaviour of a studying adult. And these differences amplifies our experiences in the working world. It is far more enriching than the experiences we enjoyed during our study life.
Time plays an important role too. People are like wine. It takes time for them to mature. The longer the maturity, the better the wine. People you meet in working life have different piorities from people you meet in school. Perhaps as we grow older, we tend to see things in a more complicated manner, adding to the experience. Just like wine.
Yet, it is times like these that we need friends whom we can trust and rely on. Friends whom we can seek shelter when the world gets too complicated. A safe harbour where we can rest and recharge ourselves. To seek companionship and sometimes, even solitude.
Without friends, we are all like little ships sailing in the deep blue ocean, at the mercy of the elements....
