I Knew It…
It was inevitable that this trip would trigger some friendships to end abruptly. A few friends have dropped off the planet too busy to hang out for the last few days I have left here, and others are sabbotaging the friendship since it’s easier to not say goodbye to someone when you are “mad” at them over some silly argument about nothing. I’m just glad I was prepared.
It’s too bad all my friends haven’t reacted with the joyful-sadness that others have. It makes me so happy to hear that they are excited for me yet sad to see me go and will miss me.

It’s too bad that not all your friends are accepting of your decision and hide their frustrations behind masks of distain. I’ve had more than one close friend in my life come and go, and unfortunately I haven’t seen a couple of them for years. It’s tough, but people need to step outside and look from a different perspective. People need to try and understand that it is not always about them, that other factors in life drive people to make decisions. I’m sure your trip will be a fantastic eye opener, and give you a much larger view of reality and the world we live in. My best wishes go out to you man! I hope you have a great trip and a safe return home.
