When You Make a New Friend Beware

When we first moved to NYC to be part of the Journey I remember one of the first people I met. I remember where I was, and what she was wearing. I also remember thinking
'will she want to be my friend?'
She did! - and I'm thankful for the time we had together, and the friendship we now share. I learned a lot from her - grace, humility, loyalty, to name a few traits.
She and her husband are moving for a great opportunity and I'm so excited for them! But I'm sad to loose a friend near by. 
One of the things I remember Mark saying to me when we moved is that people are always moving out of the city.  And its true.
Thanks to FB it seems that when people move away its a little easier to keep in touch.
I'm so glad I got to know my friend, and learn from her for this chapter in my life. I hope that she creates some good new friendships in her new town to help w/ her move, the way she did for me.
