Feeling the distance.

There are close friends who stay in touch, and there are close friends who don't, but it doesn't affect anything because when you meet them again, its like the gulf of time between he departure and arrival closes up, and it feels like it was just yesterday that you said goodbye.

Today, I heard that a friend of mine who I haven't been in touch with, has gone through some major changes in her life and is taking stock and doing other things. While that may be exciting and scary for her, and she is going through so much - and I wonder about it a lot now. Something else has happenned.

I feel out of touch, and out of the loop. To not be there, share whats going on with her when all this is happenning. To not be a part of the sea-changes in the lives of my London friends. I felt the distance today, and felt it hard.
