taking losses

by Vy on 29 December 2009

Yesterday, I had to let go of a friend with whom I had 7 years of history.  Outside of family, I’ve only known one other person for that long.

I had feelings for that guy even though deep down, I knew it would be disastrous if anything ever came of them.

Those feelings clouded my reasoning faculties, which in turn wrecked our friendship.

He was one of two parties responsible for me ever getting to know God.  I effectively owe him my life.  Yet, he still managed to become a huge stumbling block for me (because of how incredibly stupid I become when it comes to guys).

As much as I want to salvage my friendship with this guy, I figure it was best that we ceased contact with each other.  I just wish things didn’t have to end on such a bad note.

Without you I’m still whole
You and life remain beautiful

Oh, no worries. It's not your fault. Besides, a little sting every once and awhile is good for me.
