Pollen and Salt

It gets frustrating at times when there is no sense of communication in a relationship. Especially if there is a lack of communication. When surrounded by a group of people, a relationship can flourish and perhaps even grow. But a lack of the latter can result in the profound realization that perhaps this is a superficial relationship. The relationships you have outside of what might be a solid one could be like water for growth. And without growth, things become stagnant and just begin the slow process of rusting away.

Time spent together seems more like a ritual. And rituals eventually lose their significance and momentum. People tend to forget the importance of something in their lives by taking things for granted. Something or someone who has always been there for you suddenly becomes just a daily norm, rather than that special someone whose efforts and presence you once noticed. The feeling of being treated special and different loses its meaning altogether.
