MIA friends
Sometimes I miss those people I used to know on Xanga, but who have since dropped out of sight. It’s amazing how you can make friends with people whose voice you’ve never heard, but you share their life and yours, and somehow they start to take a special place in your heart. Then they just drop off the radar.
When I first started on Xanga, my only friends were people I knew in real life. Then somehow I “met” others. I don’t even remember how it happened. One of the first people I remember befriending on Xanga is Paige. I’m happy to report that she and I are still in contact.
But there are many others that for one reason or another are out of my life. At least one of them died from cancer, some began blogging elsewhere and others just sort of drifted away.
Endings are often melancholy, and I suppose even virtual friendships end that way. But I still miss them.
Do you have friends like this too?

Absolutely, and I’m in full agreement.

sorry if i haven’t been around very much.

Yeah i do. Some i knew before they were married or in a relationship and prayed and sang with them across the distance. Some i played with and talked to about any number of different things … keeping the faith sometimes FOR them in finding that partner for them they now have …. its sad, its very sad …. but i know one day in heaven we will meet up again …….. but until then, its best that Dad is in control. He must say who comes and goes and when .. not me.
