Miles Apart

I'm not quite sure how or why it happens, but people grow apart. Friends move on or away or change, circumstances change, I change. We grow up.

It's a slow kind of falling out...so gradual that you don't even truly realize it is happening until suddenly you are miles apart and can't find a way to make up the distance.

I don't know why it was, but this weekend all it took was one statement from someone else for me to realize that I am a completely different person, and that they are not the person that I used to know and love as my sister. We are complete strangers who hold no bonds, no ties, no friendships.

But it's okay...as life has been altered once, still it can change again. I have faith in that, and I praise God that he always stays the same.

"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows". James 1:17
