Nothing Lasts Forever?

"Acceptance is the first step to moving on." One of the things that bothered me for so long, especially this year, was the fact that I grew apart from my childhood best friend. It was evident that we were inseperable. We would do everything together. We would see each other whenever we can when there was no school, celebrate holidays together, laugh at the most silliest things together, have sleep overs, and etc...all the things best friends do. Then came middle school and high school when I started to feel our friendship slowly drifting away. We would never hear or see each other for long periods of time. Now, when we do see each other, it doesn't feel the same. Anyway, this past week, I have come to accept that our friendship isn't how it used to be. Over this past weekend, after her birthday, I realized that what happened to our friendship is bittersweet because I have new best friends whom I love dearly and cannot imagine my life without. :) All I can do now is to just be thankful I got to experience having a best friend/sister. Now, this doesn't mean that we cannot or will not be friends anymore. This just means that I will miss the times we spent together. And who knows? Maybe we will be good friends again later. But for now, all we have of our friendship are memories.
