🎄 In 2023, I thought a lot about an old friend
It’s strange how people come and go from your life. Just think how many you have known. Some for a long time, some a short while. Some you form a deep connection with, others a shallow one. They are part of your many networks, large and small. Your relationship with them follows the rhythms of work, hobbies, your neighbourhood, your communities.
Regardless of how you met, or the network you are both part of, or the depth of the relationship, people fade away. You from them and them from you. Some you forget entirely. Others stick in your memories. More often than not, there’s no reason for it. You “lose touch”, “drift apart”, or other blameless metaphors.
One person who I did not forget, I did lose touch with. We drifted apart. I faded from his life and he from mine.
