something ann said

I was reading my friend Ann's most recent blog, and it almost brought tears to my eyes. It was one of those revelatory moments where things just come into perspective for you. So many people have come and gone in my life in the twenty seven years of my existence. Some never even cross my mind, and some seem to occupy my thoughts weekly if not daily. I have only lived in this small mountain town since June, but some of the bonds I have formed here are amazing. The one thing I hate about my personality though, is how the special ones who are not readily present in my life seem to slip through the cracks of business, laziness, etc. Maybe I'm just too pensive or emotional right...maybe I've been reading too much Plath lately...who knows. I'm sending this out into the void...friends of mine if you read this and I haven't said it lately...you are very dear and special to me.
