most of the day today i spent with an old college friend. we walked through central park, we went to an art museum to see an exhibit of art in vienna at the turn of the century. beautiful pieces, beautiful furniture.
~~~
we walked, we talked. about the old college days filled with dance, and bad boyfriends. we ate, we people watched. we lamented over old loves, younger bodies, older lives.
~~~
and now, at 3:25am i sit. writing this. wondering why the powers that be bring people into my life only to take them away. what lesson is it that i'm supposed to learn?? how to let go? how to move on? how to set you free???????

i'm tired. it's late. i'm drunk. and wanting to feel every inch of you under my fingers. but it'll never be. time. please just go by faster, because this is killing me.......

    It isn't a lesson to be learned, unless the lesson is that life is about changes. "Now" is just a moment you'll only ever get to live in once. Bodies age, friends come and go (but never stop being friends), and for everything lost, there's something right around the corner waiting to be gained. On a bad day I dwell on what is lost and what might have been. On a good day I permit myself to hope for what's around the corner.

    And on a great day I live in the moment and appreciate the now.
