I’m struggling. I’m sad I had to let go of two long- term college friendships. Even though it’s for the sake of my health and happiness, I’m grieving the loss. I’ve had to deal with so much loss over the last two years. A divorce, my father died, friends have died, and now losing nearly lifelong friendships. I’ve gained friends too, don’t get me wrong. I’ve met some amazing new people who have become my friends. But the losses are profound and I’m feeling them today. Funny thing is, with each loss I’m regaining myself. Except for friends who have passed away.
