Thoughts with Kristin - Goodbyes Aren't Always Easy

Okay so I have written a blog post before about saying goodbye and things like that.  And the main reason for this post is just for me to get a little bit of my thoughts out of my head.  Now, today, I said goodbye to an awesome friend of mine.  This young lady was like a big sister/best friend/MK.  WE connected because she was one of the only people I had ever met that really understood how I felt.  How it felt to come to a foreign country and not have any friends.  How to be a MK and become and teenager for the Lord.  How to handle things that would come and go.  She was really awesome.  I posted this on FB this morning and I got a comment that really encouraged me.   In short she said to “Remember”.  Of course, I am going to miss her, and wish she was here.  But don’t spend all my time just sitting around going into depression while wishing she was here, but remember the good times we had together.  Now something this friend always told me was that it is ok to cry.  Crying is just one of the ways to express our emotions.  SO yeah, I just remember all those good times we had together, starting from the first time we met.  All the way up to the day I hugged her neck and said goodbye.  See there is one good thing about this entire story.  I found a real and true friend.  There are not many friends like that in this world.  But I am happy to say that I have a few of these.  Anyway, thanks for reading my rambling.  This is just my thoughts so yeah kind of scattered.  But keep an eye out pretty soon for a blog post about my life and what has been going on with us here recently.  I may even do a video on it, who knows?  But until next time, TTYL!!!  And remember to remember!!!
