Loss of A Friend
Day 9: Which is worse, when a good friend moves away, or losing touch with a good friend who lives right near you?
There are two ways in which I can answer this question due to the word choice of 'worse'. I'll talk about each option on its own and explain how it is worse, starting with what I believe to be the least 'sad'. And when I say sad....well, you'll see what I mean.
When a good friend moves away. Well that is definently worse in the way of actualy pain felt. It hurts more when a good friend moves away from you. You still care about this person and it will hurt to have them leave you. I've experienced this far too many times to count (from friends moving away to myself having to move away from them). But. . . there is still hope in this because if you are truly GOOD friends, then you will stay in touch and see each other agian one day. It's not a true loss.
Between the two, I honestly think losing touch with a good friend who lives right near you is much worse. It's truly sad....to lose a good friend who is right there. I've experienced this. In one instance, I was pained by it. But thank God I'm trying to regain our relationship and bring it back. In another, I lost that friend completely. It's a sad sad thing when friends aren't in touch anymore, but sometimes its how life is. But. . . it's sadder becuase there is still opportunity for that friendship to have remained, more likely than when a good friend moves away.
This was kind of sporadic, I guess, in thought process, and probably won't make sense to anybody other than me. But that's alright.
Much love and hugs,
Sam
