Losing a Friend.....

  •   I have recently had a very heartbreaking event in my life...I have lost a friend....not through death...but through life events that were beyond my control. I am not a child anymore, I know that people will come and go from your life..some stay a long time, some only a short while..some you are better off without...and some make a lasting impression that can never be forgotten. I am very thankful for the people that are involved in my life..I wish to thank each and every one of you for your role in shaping the evolving person that i am....no matter how small a role you feel you have they are each an important one.we are alway growing...always on the move...and sometimes forget to say the simplest of things...like thank you. We all take for granted that the people in our lives will always be there...sometimes life just doesn't work out that way. Losing some one very dear to me has again opened my eyes to this fact of life.I will live..of course, but will go through the rest of my life wondering if i expressed my thankfulness and appriciation enough to carry my memory with my frieind, while he carries on his life journey in a path different from my own. Never pass up the opportunity to express your appriciation for those that brighten your day...you never know when your last missed chance...was your last chance.

  • Edgewalker54 He'll never forget you Lola... If you feel this way, I know he'll have a small section in his heart marked "Lola".
    I know you'll miss him. When you do think about him... He'll feel that & think of you. You ever call a friend on the phone & they say "Hey,...  more
