To Miss the Present
Hey Friends,
So a lot has transpired between yesterday and today. The world has shifted, I have made an Impact, and my secrets are more golden than the sun that hits a knight's armor. Yesterday I was a pebble, and today I am once again amongst the stars. Perhaps this time, I am here to stay. Yet one thing is still keeping me grounded. My longing to stay here.
Today is not even gone, yet thinking of tomorrow makes me sad. Tomorrow you will not be there. If you will be, then you might be far away. I will remember our yesterdays and todays, but how long will it be before tomorrow wipes those away? How long before I forget that one time we were sitting on steps of the library, looking like baboons on a shopping cart, or laughing away at those silly crushes I have every single day?
You see, my testimony is this. In that moment when someone makes you so happy, you become sad when you realize that moment might not be there tomorrow. It is not because the moment will leave, but because the person will. In our daily lives people come and go, and for the first time this hard for me. I have not loved as many, as I have loved here.
Yet then I remember, how can I forget? How can I forget something or someone that means so much. I have never forgotten my first friend, how can I forget you? It is with this that I promise, if ever you have made my heart feel the need to cry over forgetting you, then you will not be forgotten. I will remember what I felt when I had thought I could forget, and remember the reason you made me cry tomorrow, and made me smile today.
