Thirty Day Challenge–Day 10

Growing up I had two best girlfriends. We all lived in the same neighborhood, we went to school together and we rode a million miles on our bicycles throughout the ten years of our friendship. They were my world and knew me better than anyone else ever did or possibly ever will again. I just knew that one day after we grew up our children would play together as we sat at each others kitchen tables sipping coffee and laughing, as we did at the time, at all our inside jokes.

An extremely terrible miscommunication and a score of hurt feelings occurred during our senior year of high school which severed our friendship entirely. My two former friends are still best friends. I get to see photos of them together online and it breaks my heart sometimes. I know that what occurred is so far in the past but sometimes I can not help but wish to have those friendships back. I have never had friendships so strong and deep as those were and seriously doubt I ever will again. In a way I wish that none of it ever happened so that I wouldn’t know that I was missing out on now.

Today I pray that God will show me what I have learned from my friends and help me to move on.
