Sorrow

I lost a dear friend of mine today. She was not yet forty. She would have hit that milestone in July. I missed my opportunity to say goodbye by minutes, just minutes and I am heavy with loss and sorrow.

It's hard to wrap my brain around the idea of not seeing her again. In my mind, the conversations weren't finished. We still had lots to talk about, and laugh about, and learn about. We still had adventures to take and lunches to eat. Now those will have to wait. I wish that I had taken more time to make time. I hope that she knew how much she meant to me; how much I love her.

For those of you still with me, who do make time in your hectic pace to squeeze me in, I thank you. I hope that each of you know how very much you mean to me and how much I love you.
