Well, the rest of the week went by nicely. Good times at meetings and seeing friends.
It seems as though I have gotten to say goodbye to so many friends. However, there are several different kinds of goodbyes.
There's the painful ones. Those are the ones you don't really want to say good bye but it's time, even if you aren't ready.
Then there's the sad ones. Where you are excited for the new adventures that your friends are about to embark on. But still, sad to not see them.
Then there are those ones where you are happy to say good bye. No longer do you wish to be in contact. Sometimes, that can be painful too. But, overall a good weight is lifted off.
I've been watching Dead Like Me. I have found much admiration and love for the show. In fact, it's been quite therapeutic. However, I am afraid there's the possibility I may run around now with a potty mouth! Which could lead to some interesting church meetings.
But seriously, there are some memories that are hard to think about. At the time they brought joy. But, now under different circumstances, it brings pain. Is it possible to move through the pain and rejoice?
I just find the t.v. series to ask questions that we all ponder, but yet, we ignore them. Instead we move on.
I suppose I am writing all of this because there's been a lot of times this Spring that I have felt alone.
This morning though, I got up. Started some household chores. Then, I made banana nut pancakes. I sat and ate my breakfast. A lot of thoughts were running through my mind, but a feeling that coming was content.
Which is a good feeling at times. I am content where I am now because I will be moving on.
As much as I love where I have been for the last couple of years, it's time to keep asking questions, figure out answers, but mostly move on.
