between me and kagi

*note: kagi and i have been friends since high school. recently, she closed/ deleted most of her social media accounts except twitter. as for her blog, she still has it because she said that's one thing she can't let go. (^_~)

anyways, this letter is for her. why do it as a post on my blog? because she said she finds my informality, lack of technique and rawness very entertaining. (>_<) also, it's because this is our only way of communicating to each other recently. in short, it's a way to get her attention.

to my friend kagi,

how are you? i can't remember when was the last time we had a decent conversation. anyways, i saw the your post/entry before you deleted most of your social media accounts. i now understand why you were so mad at "them" and you decided to just detach yourself from such social media sites. yes, it can be saddening, the medium that was intentionally created to reach out and make friends is the very same medium that is used to promote negativity and remorse. i salute you for having that strong will to detach yourself from such rubbish and insensitive actions. the words they used were harsh and i myself felt offended, even though i was not part of the discussion. i am proud of you because you just stayed away from the mess and walked away from such hostility.

i hope i can do the same, but like what you said in your post,

"how you handle it depends on how well you know yourself. if you know that it will cause you more harm and negative emotions, then why should you endure it? life has too much to offer, why focus on this lone hostility against you?"

i admit that i do not know myself too well. you know what i am talking about right? you know how much i hold on to the people whom i trust. you know how important it is for me to have that "company" so as to prevent some "events" from happening. though i rarely post in my social media accounts as compared before, the total detachment that you did was just admirable. i still check mine every evening (for some announcements or post from real friends) and i admit that sometimes i feel that "emotion" you were referring to in your post.

anyways, i hope you can teach me how you did it. hehehehe.

take care my dear friend. till next time.
