True story: I have had people in life not too long back who slyly manipulated me at every step of the way and made me feel worthless for the longest time.

There is a time for everything. Everything in your life gets its 15-minutes of fame, after which it suddenly vanishes, only to come back again in an altogether different form. However, most of the times, such ephemeral things don’t alter or modify your life much, and hence shouldn’t be fretted over. However, that doesn’t mean that they shouldn’t matter to you, they might still hold a place very close to your heart, objectively speaking. So, it is very essential that you tend to those matters at their earliest, but only after having tended the more important matters. Always remember that, even though there comes a full circle to all things in life, the end of one circle heralds the beginning of a new circle of the same entity with a whole new angle to it. So, ignore them(read: those matters) at your own peril, for, there is a fat chance that that place might be sanctum sanctorum, refuging the Holy Grail of knowledge, wisdom and enlightenment. Even the minor things in life carry much weight, and they shouldn’t be taken for granted“.
