“Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for awhile and leave footprints on our hearts. And we are never, ever the same.” anonymous
this morning i dreamt of two guy friends whom i was close to a while back. we all went to hong kong and became good friends there...i dont know why i dreamt of them...one of them i haven't talked to in ages and the other one i haven't talked to probably for a couple years, but we've emailed each other over the years...
in my dream, i was telling them about the difficulties ive been going thru lately and asking them to help pray for me. they gave me hugs and said they would pray for me. they gave me advice and comforted me. when i woke up i became really sad because it made me miss our friendship.
things change with your guy friends when they get married and when you get married. ive lost a handful of guy friends over the years, and its sad to think about not being able to talk and call each other up anymore. dont get me wrong, i totally am in agreement about the boundaries that need to be designated when you get married. but it's still sad about the loss of friendship. some friends are really only in your life for that particular period and then they've served their purpose already....
maybe my inner conscience made me dream of them for some weird reason...it was just recently one of their birthdays this past week....or maybe God is telling me that if they knew about my current troubles, they would be more than willing to pray for me. friendship spans the distance between people and even in cases where we haven't talked for awhile, i know they ultimately wish the best for me. although our friendship has changed, i know that friends always want the best for their friends...
thank You Jesus for friends. thank You for the old friends and thank You for the new ones. thank You for my husband, who is now my constant and forever friend. =)
