Nothing lasts forever, we all know that - people move, relationships change, experiences fade, years go by and things just change. The school year ends, a class concludes, your living arrangements fade, a baby comes, a parent goes - things just don't remain the same always. It's the natural progression of our spiritual, mental growth, strength challenges and life experiences.
I personally feel the most impact of change when a friend moves. It makes me sad knowing that they won't be just a few feet away to talk to or go visit, to grab a bite with or spend time with on a random night of the week. It can be difficult not to make the situation about you, feel bad for you or feel like you're the victim that's being left behind. Each person has their own path. It is our responsibility to walk our own path to the fullest as we allow others to walk theirs - to embrace our meetings, cherishing any and all relationships we establish, learn the lessons meant for one another and to always keep the memory alive. It is our duty to work at keeping any sort of distance put between us and another as just a challenge to keep our relationship strong and to work harder to overcome.
As people, situations, things and the world continues to change around us, it is the relationship that stays strong and the connection that is important. Capture each event and make it a memory lives in your heart.
