Day 27: Some Friendships Never Fade

            There are very few people in your life that you can say you think will be a friend for a lifetime.  If you find someone or more than someone like this, you are blessed with something truly amazing.  Most people have those people that they would give up anything for, do anything for.  I know a few of those people and I am so grateful to know them.  I am at that stage of life where my friends are beginning to get married or move away.
            Today I said goodbye to one of those people who is moving away to go to university.  But I am confident that when I see her again we will be able to pick up where we left off.
            I have friend who moved away for the summer for work.  Once he gets back we’ll pick up where we left off.
            A couple of my family members are off on vacation for a-month-and-a-half.  They’ll get back and we’ll pick up where we left off.
            I have a family member living eight hours away.  When I see her, we’ll pick up where we left off.
            I have friends and family members that I am so blessed to have.  I know that if I am as important to them as they are to me, we will be able to pick up where we left off the last time we saw each other. 
            I’m sad to say I probably take those I love for granted.  The more you have of something the less you notice its there.  The less you have of something the more you realize just how important it is to you.
            I think this is true with people too.
            So, this is for you, my favorite people.  You know who you are.  At least I hope you do.  If you don’t, I have failed in some way to show you just how important you are to me.
            You guys enrich my life and make it so much better than it could ever be without you.
