Friends

Strange to think about living in a place where everyone will be of new and short acquaintance. We're leaving a place with friends of nearly 20 years. That is a history of fun, mistakes, forgivings, understandings, some dramas, and many layers of knowledge of one another. A creation of texture and time. Of course, that won't disappear; it just won't be as accessible as before. So the challenge is to look inward and rely on that history as a way of moving forward. And in the meantime I shall miss everyone very much.
