I was talking with my Mom the other day about relationships. How it is intesting to see the ebb and flow of them. Over the past few years I have had a lot of change in the friendship area. I have learned to deal with it but it doesn't mean that I don't mourn the loss of how things were. Not that I have had any friendships end badly or anything. There has just been change. For example...3 years ago I was inseperable with 2 girls. We did everything together. Then one of them moved. Still the one that lived here and I stayed close and did everything together. Then she got married and moved about an hour away. These 2 girls were my closest friends at the time and now I hardly ever see them or talk to them. Does this make me sad? Yes. Am I angry about it? No. It is just how things work. I love both of them dearly but realize that things change. I can't expect things to always stay the same. I still talk to them occasionally and hope that they will always be a part of my life.

It is interesting to me though how people can come in and out of your life at different times. I am thankful I have been blessed with so many friends and hope to continue to develop relationships with the new ones in my life.
