Old Friends

Today I got a call from an old friend that is very special to me. This friend has done a lot for me and has taught me a lot about who I am and life. It is amazing how one person can bring so many feelings. I was so happy to hear from this friend but at the same time very heartbroken, because I miss my friend. In one phone call I felt so many emotions and had so many memories that we had shared flash through my head. I felt like we had never parted or lost contact. Like I could share anything and everything, and it would be ok, listened to, and cared about. This friend made me smile, laugh and feel good. It seems to me that no matter how far apart you are you aren't really apart. This friend still Know me as good as the day we went are separate ways. When asked how I was doing I gave the usual "fine". My friend could tell by my voice the truth and listened when I told the truth. It brings a song to mind: "I miss my friend" (its country for you who don't know it). A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart, and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words." - Sent by Donna Roberts
