The world is full of people, but I have come to learn that finding those you spark with - those who are friends, and more than friends - and care for deeply, is harder than you'd know.
Which is why, I miss her!
For years I have been so incredibly lucky, and blessed, to live a mere 10 minute drive from her home a few suburbs away from mine. Then, a month ago, my luck changed. I remember the conversation in which she told me that she had decided to make a big, daring, and exciting move. There was no certainty that the move would bring her everything that she wanted, and no certainty that the move would work out. Regardless, I remember my brave and beautiful friend looking me in the eyes and telling me that the ticket was bought.
No turning back now.
Selfishly I wish that she were a mere 10 minute drive from my house like she used to be, but inwardly I know that regardless of me missing her, this is a vital life lesson for me. For you see, I am trying to live selflessly in a selfish world. And it's hard, because I'm the one with the problems, and the selfish desires.
To my brave, beautiful, and now, far-away friend,xx
I know that you are living your life, day by day, in an incredible way. I hope that we get to see each other very soon, and who knows, maybe one day get to live only a mere 10 minutes away. Thankyou for being such a great friend!
Love, MJ
