In the blink of an eye---Gone but not forgotten in Feeling like Sybil

I am sad today.
Nature fits my mood… gloomy and rainy.
3 years ago today I lost one of my closest friends.
3 days ago, I realized that others in my “bff circle”, have stopped liking and commenting on my facebook posts. I mean.. like havent done it in a few weeks…, nothing, not even on kid pix or anything.
I can only assume it’s because my political affiliations differ greatly from theirs.
But I don’t even post political things. Or comment on their’s.
So it really hurts to think I’ve been abandoned.
Sounds silly when I type it out here… but the feeling is real.
I need my friends. I am a friend needer.
I don’t like it when I don’t have friends.
Sure.. I have other friends…great ones!
But the reality of what today signifies, coupled with the fact that some of the women I love the most seemed to have abandoned me over stupid politics… it hurts.
But life goes on.. with or without friends.
And things have to be done.
Responsibility will not allow me to wallow…
And tomorrow is another day.

I'm sorry. Unfortunately with emotions running high on the US candidates, it's difficult because these aren't normal political candidates. These are people where if you pick one or the other, it shows the true depth of ones character and what they believe in. From there, friendships will be lost because it's impossible to see how to find a way back to who you thought you knew.
