Sometimes in life, we come across a friendship, relationship or a situation that doesn't work. No matter how much you try to keep up to it, things fall apart. You try figuring it out like a jigsaw puzzle but ultimately, you have to give up. You give up not because you are tired of it, or that you don't like the other person anymore. It is simply because you did all you can to keep it good. It is not your fault that they suddenly stopped checking up on you when they moved to another city or got busy in a new job. It is not your fault that they couldn't return your calls or texts on time. You can't blame yourself for it.

Sometimes it is both the person who tries to maintain the bond but it still doesn't work. It isn't any of your fault, I would say. It just means that it is not meant to be. In life, we often get situations when we force ourselves to make it work. Be it in a professional place or a relationship. The 'not meant to be' thing applies to everything. Don't stretch something that has shown you signs of it not working. Let that person go. Let that job go. Let that thing go. Be disheartened, but take lessons from it. Whatever happens, happens for the good. You will get to know it sooner or later. The world doesn't stop for anyone, so neither should you.

It is indeed a hard fact to digest but some things in life are just not meant to be, no matter how much you try.
