friendships have been on my mind a lot lately. this is probably because mine have been changing over the last few months. i ended a major season in my life this past spring and with that comes the end of seeing many of the people i ate with at lunch, sat next to in class or hung out with at dorm events. it amazes me how one year i can spend hours and hours with someone and then the next year i never see them again. God continues to bring or keep the exact people i need for each day of my life.
tonight, however, i wanted to hit pause. two of the gals that know me the best and who i consider my sisters came over to make indian food and then we went to listen to some live music. i am so grateful for these ladies and i wish we could spend every Friday night together. i also wish we could actually do what we talked about years ago which is have houses next to each other in colorado. but we can't spend every friday night together and we will most likely not all live in the same neighborhood in colorado. i needed to write about this night to remind myself that things will not always be the same (which is a good thing, otherwise life would be boring) and i can embrace every moment i spend with these women.
friendships will change because that is the way life happens, but when i have a moment with my best friends, i don't always want it to end. i hope that is not too selfish of me to say. thank you God for giving me these sisters and all of the women in my life. i have always wanted a sister (because most of the dinner conversations at my house are about sports), yet i need to remember that i have many women in my life that i can call my sisters. this is definitely a blessing in disguise. they are the sisters i have always wanted, yet always had.
