So I didn't blog yesterday at all. I was busy all day (really I was) and then had company for supper.By the time the night was over, I was tired and ready for bed. So I am blogging this morning! Well in a couple of minutes it will be the afternoon. Whatever.........
My friends are moving away. They have been here in this community for quite a while. I have known them for a few years but haven't really connected with them on a more personal friendship level until recently. The relationship has developed into something that has me wondering "why now?" We've just started to get to know each other better (all 4 of us) and it all seems a little rushed. Why now? why not even last year? I know there's a reason for everything, a time for everything, but jeez! I am really going to miss these two. They have added so much to my life recently. I guess that's what they were supposed to do. I guess now is the time for them to move on. Still......it does make me a little sad. They will be missed! We'll still have fb and twitter but.....it just won't be the same. These two have been married for 21 years. They have really lived! I enjoy their thoughts on life, their excitement for life, their attitude, their kindness, their crazy sense of humor, but most of all ,their unwavering faith. They have made a difference in MY life (a good one) and I smile because I knew them! :)

ReplyDeleteI often wonder why a sunset is so brief...it's beauty so fleeting. Gone almost as quick as it began. But the feelings of joy and contentment sunsets give us are life-lasters. Stuff songs are written about.
ReplyDeleteAs it is with Friends...even fleeting ones as full as a setting sun.
Agreed Paula! we would love to visit!I agree with you too "Spoke!" It's more of a question put out there for us to talk about, but I DO love it all the same,regardless of how brief! :)
