Lost Friendships

Just recently, I was reconnected with two old friends. Thanks to the social networking site facebook. Facebook has now been my sounding board, lately. Funny but true :”). They were now working together abroad. Both remained together. Both decided to stay together. They had happy years together as friends. I’m happy for both of them.

But our cyber reunion was quite unusual. Because we parted ways during the time when we were not in speaking terms. Our friendship suffered a major blow then and I gave up to them. We didn’t try hard enough to talk and to settle things up. I even forgot now what were the reasons and circumstances back then that broke us apart. This experience simply proves to me that merely forgetting is not enough. It is still best to seek and grant forgiveness.

After a few exchange of messages, we promised to start anew. I guess all of us were now busy browsing each others’ photo album and wall. And what’s more, all of us were still single! (Sigh.) I am now happy that finally I am reconciled with both of my old, good friends. I missed them both. And I wish we could spend some time together again. To make up with lost time. It’s not yet too late, isn’t it? It’s been almost five years I haven’t seen both of them. All of us admitted we have been searching each other in various social networking sites.

I still have other friends I’ve lost before. And maybe some other friends I might also lost along the way as I journey through my life. But I guess, it’s not important how many friends I have. What’s matters most is to keep those friends and loveones that could accept me as who I am. Those ones that truly loves me and I truly love.

As for now, I’m trying hard not to lose Him. I’m trying hard not to be His lost friend no more.
