Bittersweet Symphony
Sigh.
I started to write a long drawn out post about my weekend in NC for a friends wedding...but I erased it. The title of this post says it all. I spent about an hour crying on the drive home because of nostalgia; I missed hanging with the boys (my older brother's friends), I miss Matt's (the groom, my brothers best friend) inviting and laid back parents, who were almost my in-laws at one point, I was excited to meet the bride for the first time and her son Noah and share their wonderful farm life...and most of all, I was sad that we may never again, all of us, be together, especially on such a beautiful and joyous occasion.
Sigh.
I am getting sad just thinking about it. I am so sentimental. I love my life, but being at Glenreid Farm, on the most picture perfect October day, drinking a cold beer, hanging with great people, catching up, sharing our lives and our excitement for the new marriage...it just doesn't get any better. I am so grateful for being a part of Matt and Megan's life. I want to go back. I want to uproot my little family and get a farm and bring everyone I love to it and live simply.
Sigh.

Sending you a cyber HUG!
ReplyDeleteCherish a moment in your life, where you are right now, sometime today. No wishes, no regrets. Hold that feeling and invite it to replace your melancholy.
P.s I tagged you :)
