Wow, I can hardly believe that I’ve almost made it to the very end of this little 30 day adventure in honesty. I’ve actually enjoyed these a great deal and enjoyed the fact that some of them have made me pause to think or reflect about certain things in my life. I may do more of them in the future.
Day 28- Something that you miss, in great detail.
This is a big one- There are so many things that I miss. I miss my family and friends that I don’t get to see regularly because we don’t live in the immediate area. I miss long-ago friends that I have lost contact with over the years and wish that I could reconnect with. Luckily for Facebook, I’ve been able to do that with some people and I’m so grateful. The Internet is an awesome tool.
I miss people- I miss my grandmothers. I miss that I never got to know my grandpa Tanner as well as I’d like because he died when I was around 12 years old. I miss Carol.
I miss not being a part of some people’s lives in spite of really wanting to be.
I miss Muffy and Lucky- two of my favorite kitties ever (both strays) who loved completely. I miss their anxiousness to show that love and to greet me with affection no matter how long it had been since they’d seen me last.
I miss being home to be a part of life events such as helping Olivia and Ainsley move into their college dorms at USM.
I miss seeing my precious nephew participate in all the sports that he’s involved in and going to his school and church programs.
One of the things I miss most is the innocence of being oblivious to the pain that others are struggling with and knowing I can’t change things. That one is a double-edged sword.
