"There she goes...

... there she goes again". And she's off, well not quite officially.

I can't believe that your leaving, if feels like you've only been back for a little while and now your going away.

Bethany, what happens when I have a life ending dilemma again. I can't just drive you home and complain for hours in your driveway. What happens the next time that the youth group doesn't think that I need to be involved again. What happens the next time he gets a girlfriend? What happens the next time... life.. just.. sucks.

I'm selfish here, I don't want to be the one left behind. It feels as though, my whole life, people have been walking out of it. As open as I try to be, as far out on the limb as I think that I've climbed, it just doesn't seem to work. You know that. You know what needs to be said; what I need to hear, even when I may not want to hear it.

I will miss you dearly. I hope those other Ladies take good care of you. But don't forget the ones you leave behind. I thank God for the influence you have had in my life. I will not trade, anything for the day that we made you so uncomfortable, you were strangely comfortable with us. I'm glad that you've stayed comfortable with us, and that we are always able to pick up right where we left off. Friends.

And so dear Friend, as you go on your way, may we always be able to pick up, being friends.

Love, Prayers and Friendship, in Christ Jesus.
S.

Happy New Year Girls!
