I move in 1 day and I find myself so emotional, since we moved here I have had some really wonderful people enter my life, I find myself praying that they will remain there…. At the same time I find myself remembering what my mother always told me, that God places people in your life, some for a lifetime, and some only to leave memories for a lifetime!
I have 3 best friends, we sort of think of ourselves as the sisterhood of the traveling pants. Although we never grew up together, you would think that we did. We feel each others pain, near or far we feel each other.
One of my sisters we will call her T moved to Calgary almost 2 years ago, and although we hoped she was gone for only a short time, we all new in our hearts it would not be. We exchanged tears and laughter and we miss her. We always look forward to our time with her when she is here and as a matter of fact she is getting married this September, so she will be here in June and again for her WEDDING in September which I might add will be a PARTY!!!!
The next of my sisters I will refer to as A and she is a wonderful and almost flawless whole hearted person, she is someone I don’t think I can go a day without speaking to. She just had her first baby last September. She has been through a LOT, she has been through more things in her short lifetime then anyone I know, yet she always has a smile and a supportive shoulder to cry on…. We just found out that A. may be relocating to Winnipeg or as we call it WINDIPOO because her Hubby is possibly relocating for a job, and as we all know the whole part of growing up, is moving on to bigger and better things, we all need to do what is best for our lives and our families. Even if that means that the things we need aren’t always what we want. Although I would love to keep her a short little car ride away they would be silly to turn such a fantastic opportunity away!!! There will be many long distance calls to come I see!!!!
The 3rd but not least I will refer to as L. FOR LOVE, with her I always feel loved. She loves me for everything even the bad, she is the one who holds my hair back while I spew!!! She is someone I can only dream of being as great as. She is to me like the wind is to air!!! Without her I have no air !!! I don’t know that she realizes how great and wonderful I think she is, I think she has to be the strongest and most loving person I know, I can not go a day without speaking to her either, even it is just to call her machine and say “hey it’s me….”
Tonight as I tucked my little 4 year old into bed I felt a pain I think never goes away, she has a little friend at school that apparently is so close they are inseparable when they are together. Well tonight she asked me how many more days she has left to spend with her friend and when I told her 1, her face grew long a single tear fell from her eye, and instantly I new where her heart was...... she was torn between the happiness of the move and all the new things to come and the sadness of all that she is leaving behind…… she asked me if it was too late to change her mind about moving, and when I told her it was she asked “what if I never see her again She will forget me” I reassured her and told her that as hard as leaving will be time heals all wounds. I told her that we would send a card to school for her friend so that her Mommy will have our number, and that absence makes the heart grow fonder. I tried to think of, and say all the things I remember my mother telling me, I so badly wanted to tell her that she will never know this pain again but I could not because that would be a lie. I know that this is only the first time my little Lovebug will ever have her little heart broken. I truly had never thought I would be dealing with this at this age but then hey life has a funny way of throwing those random fast balls.
So as for my heart, yes it is breaking a bit, and I am torn with everything I am leaving, and everything I am about to endure. I am overwhelmed with all of it. Although I will still be only a car ride away, I am going to be a longer car ride away so it is like changing chapters in life and I only hope and that my 3 rocks will still be in the next chapter. Life moves on either way and I will enjoy the time with them, either in person, or memory.... I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!!
This is a poem sent to me from L. and I hope to draw strength from it to help mend my sweet 4 year olds breaking little heart!!!
What Comes Of Tomorrow
by Christine
Joy is what fills the heart of they
which hold within the mysteries of a friend
A passion unknown unto words
Within them fall the tears of all things they endure as one
And from their eyes diamonds fall,
So precious every one
Dear within, the memories they caress with sorrow
And gather them today, for what may come of tomorrow
Priceless
Priceless ever are these moments that we spend with those so dear
Comforting now to know that they are near
Yet there comes a day when they see the eagle soar
And feel within their hearts
A passion so much more
As we stand beside them when that gleam glows in their eyes
What comes of tomorrow
My friend's lost paradise
And though a distant barrier wells up within the heart
There is a joy inside
To know the joy of a dawning start
Standing there beside them on that road to paradise
We say farewell and weep
Knowing they must also compromise
And so we hold them close and whisper in their ear
Please take with you these memories.
Then from the eyes,
Your tear.
As your day comes near, I just want you to know, I love you.
And yes I will miss you an things will change, but......
I know we will grow stronger.
I love you very much xoxoxo
