Conquering Fears

Don’t forget me..

Post to Twitter

I think sometimes the hardest thing about going away is not actually the leaving, but the fact that it generally seems as if everyone else is going on with life and has forgotten all about you. Perhaps a lot of the loneliness that comes with being gone is not really loneliness, but actually a longing for someone back home to remember. It’s like the soul is saying, “Please don’t forget me!” Yes, I moved to the other side of the world, but with technology keeping in touch is easier than ever! And it doesn’t cost any more to send letters and e-mails are free! So as you get ready to send out Christmas cards or if you get some spare time, don’t forget to add me to your list! I think of all of you often and I miss you so very much. It’s hard to realize that life must go one with or without you..but that fact is multiplying when you feel that no one notices your absence.

Thank goodness my family has been the most amazing source of encouragement and comfort in this and they have definitely not forgotten about me!
So perhaps this a request..or a plea..or simply a girl living in paradise missing her home. Regardless of what it is, please remember me as you head into the holidays! I will be thinking of all of you and while I miss you all, I am so much enjoying my life in Saipan! Thanks for being so encouraging and supportive. You are the best!
