It has been a difficult few years in the friendship department for me.
Sometimes friends grow apart, sometimes friends have irreconcilable differences, sometimes distance dissolves (or muddies) a friendship, sometimes there is a realization that there was never a friendship to begin with.
How to move beyond losing friends? "Make new ones," you say?
Turns out, this isn't as easy as it once was (age? children? location?), but I am working on it.
Also, it turns out that losing the mindset of trying to maintain friendships that are no longer there is also difficult, at least for me. This is what I am working on today by thinking of my own way to say, "goodbye." Maybe I'll light a candle, or a poem, or donate some junk to something - a physical purge to represent the emotional purge. Is this what the end of a divorce feels like?
Strange.
I am looking forward to meeting and getting to know my new friends - hope day be cool like dat :)
