I used to feel like everyone I knew orbited around me, and at warp speed, and I had to figure out what they were doing and what they were thinking at all times and how it all affected me! ME, ME, ME, ME, ME!
They haven't changed, they just feel so unfamiliar put back in to their own orbits where they belong, where their lives only occasionally brush mine, and I don't have to worry about what they're doing unless they are currently, physically interacting with me.
The absence of that gravitational force has left my planet a little unsteady on its axis.. Where it stood in the universe was only ever defined by it's perceived closeness to other planets. Now I'm just floatin' around in space..
That's actually a very calming visualization... lol
