Let me start by saying my life today is better than ever before when it comes to solid, "iron sharpens iron"-style friendships! I have learned from the past, and am very thankful for the close friends and healthy boundaries I have now, and I sincerely have no desire to go back in time or change things...
But yes, several people come to mind from time to time - people that I still care about and may see occasionally, yet the closeness has faded and new relationships have formed... but when I think of them now, it makes me happy... and I remember our good times, the funny moments, the long talks, how they shaped my life, etc. And for reasons unique to each person, I miss the heart of the friendship. I could go into much more detail here and do favorite memories and quotes for everyone, but I'll spare you the specifics. ;)
Here goes...
Natalie (Gruenberg) Haggard... and Mark! :)
Jennifer Diane Womble!
Megan Elizabeth Smith!
Sarah Heiskell!
"Changie" Classen (who just welcomed their first baby girl, Charis!) =)
Joshua Michael Martin!
Sarah "Lee" Bliss Snyder!
Wesley Blake Hill!
And last, but never least, Holly Dei Wesselhoft! =)
Sooo many memories... in thinking through this, it's awesome to see how God directed my steps
and that I really do love my life and friendships, past and present...
and knowing God, the future is sure to be even better!! =D
