"It's been a long day without you my Friend."
Who knew.
Who knew that when I started out in this journey I would cross paths with such extraordinary people. People who make the days brighter. People whose smiles heal wounds. People whose genius trickles down and seeps into the cracks of my psyche. I didn't.
I keep my universe a very small place. The fewer people in it, the better. Trust is over rated and not easily earned, and privacy is paramount. Over the small space of my life I have had the privilege invite some incredible people into my sanctuary. Not just the kitchen, where great coffee, divine treats, and copius amounts of love lives. But into the sanctuary of my mind, or deeper and less likely, my heart. These people are the ones that make my world a better place. The ones that teach me how to brighten and better as I go. Every moment with someone I love and trust is sacred. Every moment emblazoned in my memory. Kept to rejuvenate me when I can't speak to that person, or can't see them.
Now if I didn't know that I would meet and accept such amazing people, then for sure I didn't know how painful it would be when the path we on are splits and we have to go separate ways.
What the?
Where did you go?
Why?
I get it.
We all have a path. And if we are lucky enough to have a fellow traveler as we traverse life, then we can count it as a blessing, a miracle. But eventually, one way or another we always end up walking alone for a while.
Thank you to those who walk with me. And thank you to those whose path is no longer intersecting with mine. You have given me so much, and remember that just as I walk with a piece of you in my heart, you also have taken a piece of me.
I hope with all my heart that our paths cross again.
"It's been a long day without you my Friend, and I'll tell you all about it when I see you again."
