Is this normal? I have to admit it is getting a little bit tiring. As my previous history teacher used to say, "Today we are going to catch-up." Catch up? Yes, catch up.
I have all these simply amazing people who dart in and out of my life. But I wish they could stay. I get to have these deep conversations and great moments, but then they leave. And here I am, by myself. I have all these people distantly surrounding me, but so many don't care long enough to stay. It's not their fault I know. I should be thankful to even have these friendships, however occasional they may be. I guess I just want some consistency.
I miss the days when everyone did not have a thousand facebook friends, when they could give a lot to every friendship. I miss watching those T.V. shows in the 90's when people's best friends practically lived at their houses. I miss those days when "ketchup" only referred to a side for french fries, not the glue holding friendships together.
I know "catch up" is worth it though. Difficult, surely, but worth it.
