A Little of Everything

What do you do when you're missing a few of your best friends?

One of my best friends is far, far away in Can-Eh-Da. Why'd she go & move up there? Goodness! Oh, yes, cause the love of her life lives there & they got married & stayed there. Okay, since I love love & I love them, it's acceptable. Haha. But when rough times hit, I wish she was here. She'd definitely hit me with truth, care, and some laughs to go along with any tears that may fall. I sure do miss her. Thankfully, I have some great besties that are still here (whew) who are definitely blessings and keepers. ;)

The other person I miss was never told he's one of my best friends. It's a complicated friendship that at times doesn't seem like one. But at others, it feels like it's an indestructible one. Some relationships are like that, but again, at my highest and lowest moments, he's the one I want to call. The only problem is sometimes he's around, others he's not. And I feel like I want him around more than I don't. How does one fix that? Not sure, really. 

My heart is especially heavy tonight ... I wish it wasn't. I didn't spend the day feeling like this. I actually felt great all day. Life is weighing on me. I have to start giving it to God because I'm wearing myself down & God instructed us to cast our cares on Him. Why don't I do that more often? 

Tomorrow is a new day & I have one of my favorite races to get to ... Brooklyn Half Marathon. I will miss my race partner, Leon, but could potentially miss someone else who is even more important to me. 

Life happens. Its what we do with each moment that happens, how we handle things and people. We don't know what tomorrow's going to bring. It's time to start cherishing the people we truly care about & treating each other tenderly, the way we would like to be treated -- even if is not what we receive in return. I'm starting to view many things differently. I can only hope & pray God directs my path & shows me the way.
