I realize as more time passes by that each new stage of life requires that you leave some things behind or it just seem to be the price that is paid.
When I left for England. I lost a lot of people I thought were friends. Through neither fault of our own, communication was lost, and therefore the friendship disappeared. When I graduated and started grad school, I lost a lot of people I thought were friends, this time it wasn't me.... when I got married, I lost a lot of people I thought were friends, again, it wasn't me. I bet when I have children, I will lose a lot of people I think are friends now. It's the time people can give you and that you can give people. I think I learned my lesson having moved away, about how important it is to keep in touch even if it's just once or twice every few months. Not only time, but what you can relate to with another person. I think the friendships that are real, have lasted, they are the ones that have always been there. But so many days were spent building relationships with people I will probably never see again and it makes me feel a little bit sad. How hard it is to build something and how easy it is to let it go and let it fall apart.
A year ago I was graduating with my undergraduate degree, and finishing plans for my wedding. Time has flown by. I think about the things that are to come, and I'm excited but also weary, who stays and who goes?
