Detached
A friend of mine called me last night. We haven’t spoken since the beginning of September, but we picked up the conversation as if yesterday was the last time we spoke.
She was in my wedding. I consider her one of my closest friends. She is a trustworthy, reliable, level-headed person… and a blast of fun! So, why why why have we not spoken in three months? We have email correspondence, but it’s not the same.
I HATE that my busy lifestyle keeps me out of touch with my friends and family. I really felt like I was doing well by keeping in touch by email, but after a phone call, or a LIVE visit, you feel a little sad when you remember what you are missing.
I love the companionship of my husband, but I sometimes miss the variety and mindlessness of chatting with other people I am close with.
I suppose I should keep that in mind this holiday season; to make the most of my time.
I miss you, friend.
