Sometimes I forget that I'm already twenty-one and an adult. Then, something happens to remind me. For example, in a joyous event, one of my best friends got engaged on Tuesday! (Yes, yes... Valentine's Day... from what I hear it was quite romantic.) Another example, much less joyous, one of my longtime best friends may no longer be coming to our Youth Group soon. While I don't really blame him, he is also an adult now, I will definitely miss him. He, another younger best friend, and I are the only remaining three from when the Group started up. I already feel sad sometimes that so many of the friends that I grew up with and was so close to during high school have gone off to college away from home, and are moving on with their lives. I don't blame them, absolutely not! In fact, I'm quite proud of them for following God's plan for their lives. It just is difficult to be one of two college students that stayed in the area.
I guess what I'm getting at is... sometimes I am surprised by change. Yes, that's it....
Confession #10:
Sometimes, change takes me off guard.
EDIT: My friend ended up still coming to the youth group.

I know darling. Me too. Change and I don't really get on that well...but c'est la vie. At least the good news is, no matter where you or I go, we know how to be long distance friends :)
That is very true.... I love you, sweetheart. Thank you for being my wonderful friend.
