I put on my running shoes and started to run, the news I heard made me want to run away from everything. Just run, run, run, that is all I could think about as I pounded the sidewalk, just run to get away from all the hurt and pain.
The tears are streaming down my face as I keep running, my vision is blurred because of the tears, I need to stop, but I don’t want to stop, I can’t stop thinking of how he hurt me and why he hurt me. My head says, keep running and I go for miles, one foot in front of the other as I try not to think of the pain.
I looked down and notice, my shoe laces have come undone. I stop to tie it and right there at my foot is a note. I want to get up and keep going, but I need an excuse to wipe away the tears, so I pick it up ‘
“Everybody isn’t your friend. Just because they hang around you and laugh with you doesn’t mean they’re for you. Just because they say they got your back doesn’t mean they won’t stab you in it. People pretend well. Jealousy sometimes doesn’t live far. So know your circle. At the end of the day, real situations, expose false people, so pay attention”.
The words held so much meaning to me. I began to wonder who it was going to and why. I put the note in my pocket and started to run again.
Thank you karuna.
