In A Perfect World

In a perfect world, I would never miss my friends......I could see them whenever, where ever I wanted.
They would be with me, when ever I needed them, we could spend as much time together as we wanted.
In a perfect world, there would be no goodbyes.......and years would not pass before time was spent with each other.

In a perfect world, there would be laughter and hugs,  and as much conversation as could be  mustered up.
The phone would always bring a loving voice, e-mails galore, and all the hours needed to solve the world's problems.

The more time I spend with friends, the more I miss the ones I can't spend time with.  The days, months and years pass so quickly, it is not fair.  You think of them, and wonder if they think of you, do they have the same memories that you have, do they miss you?

In a perfect world, there would be no need for these thoughts, sadly, the world is not perfect......friends are met, the connection is made, and for whatever reason, the river of life moves everyone in different directions, flooding our lives with memories, with hopes, that one day, somewhere, you see each other again.
The good thing about technology.......keeping in touch.........no matter how fast life comes at you, the thread can stay connected.......we settle for imperfection.
