So today I have a very sad heavy heart. My best friend has been here for a week visiting. It has been a wonderful blessed time. We have chatted, laughed, cried and just had a great time with one another's company. We have not needed to go site seeing or do grand things. Just being in one another's company was good. We went shopping, took each other to lunch and sat on the couch watching chick flicks while the kids slept or played outside. Today she leaves. I am struggling with feelings of loss, loneliness and fear.
I know that I need to trust the Lord with these feelings. I know that I will be okay. I know that God has something for me here. Why else would He have brought me. However, I also know that so far after 80 some odd days here I have yet to find a friend that I can even call and say hey, much less someone who I can confide in and feel comfortable with.
I know she is only a phone call away but there is definitely something to be said for being able to meet someone in person.
I am going to miss her dearly.
