Wishing you.
Hi.
Today’s a special day for you. I just wanted to say Bless you.
On this day, I’m thinking of you and I hope you’re well.
I hope that there is sunshine in your heart and jellybeans in your belly.
I wish I could be there with you today but you know how things are.
I was listening to this silly old song which made me think of that one time we drank champaign and laughed at the stars. And how we’d hold hands and giggle. I thought about how we’d lean our heads against each other’s shoulders and blow kisses into the sky.
Do you remember?
Do you remember that one time when we stayed up all night and talked about the sins of our families and the burdens that we carried from them? Do you remember that time when we held each other for hours because our mother’s wouldn’t be at our weddings?
Do you remember?
And that last talk we had. So weird. So distant and detached. Had we changed so much that we couldn’t connect anymore? We used to be 11:00 friends. You remember that term? We made that up in college. After 11:00 is when you really started to know a person. That’s when they stopped fronting and became real and true and honest with themselves and with you. That’s how we always were with each other. Until things changed. Yeah, stuff changed. I’m not sure what happened, but I don’t care much about that anymore. It’s not important.
And now, things are so very very different. We haven’t talked in ages, but it’s not like I’m not thinking of you today. I hope you’re well.
Through distance and circumstance, through change & difference
I still love you.
-MJ
