Friendship: The Pain and Happiness.

Decided to change my blog post to something a bit more close to home;Friends.

Ahhhh friends. We all have them. True friends, fake friends, frenemies, the lot.

But for some reason Facebook memories has seem to trigger this "feel" in my heart about how friends come and go. I recall the close friends I had a few years back. Some were closer than they now are before. Sometimes incidents make things awkward and you feel as though you need another incident to bring you closer together again. Sometimes you don't know when to ask and when to "let things slide" for fear of losing that friendship.Or sometimes... you just drift apart.

I recall those in whom I confided in until they grew older, went further away.. I recall the times and memories we had. The jokes, the sharing, all of it. And I can't help.. but feel sad.

But at the same time, God brought along new friends. Friends who I could rely on, whom I only know on the surface, from whom I learn to detach with, and friends whom make a new place feel like home.

Friends come and go. But God is the one who decides who to come and who to leave.

The only thing we can do..is to treasure them when they are in our lives.Once they leave, thank them: "thank you for stopping by. Do come again."

God bless.
