The Barrier of Distance;Loosing Bonds With A Childhood Buddy

Hello everyone and welcome to my blog. Indeed it's been quite a while since I updated my blog. I've been unable to post due to a personal difficulty, but let's get into today's prompt from @hivelearners.

You know we all have that buddy We were really close and attached to, and we practically did everything together but then circumstances or I would rather say life occurred and we split for a bit or perhaps lost them to something tragic like death. It's also possible that we lost them possibly due to a change of location, such as relocating to a completely different city. However I have countless childhood buddies like that who have lost to the different causes I described above but then there is always the one who is the most closest to our hearts.

As far as I could recall, her parents happened to be the resident pastor of that specific local church and we lived near to the pastornage. Although I and my parents happen to attend another church distinct from the one near to our house. But then, the pastor began attempting to get my parents to join in worshiping with them. After so many tries, my mom began going but my dad still refused. So, most times I would accompany my mom to the church nearby and occasionally I would follow my dad to his.

The local pastor has this daughter that was approximately my age by name Goodness. Over time, Goodness and I had such close relationships that her parents eventually showed their faith in us by letting her and the rest of her siblings visit me often for meals, showers, and sleepovers. Of course I had a crush on her. Whenever my mom wanted to feed me and she's present, she would seat us down on the floor and feed us both turn after turn. I recalled the smile on her face and her gorgeous one sided dimple. Several years later, it was reported that a transfer letter had come in for the dad and thus they needed to relocate to another area.

When that day arrived, my mother sobbed so hard that she had to sit on the floor. I at a very young age didn't know what was really going on at that time, I just witnessed them moving all their belongings, believing they were just traveling. My mom then explained to me that they were relocating to a new area. I felt so horrible but didn't weep cuz I still don't know what it felt like losing an only friend you've developed a relationship with. Currently, I heard she lost her dad to death, but no one informed me about it till after his funeral. What is extremely awful news to hear. She's currently attending school in another state, and I've lost touch with her. To be honest, if I had a chance to see her right now, I would be very delighted, for it's been so long and I question if I would be able to identify her again in her adult shape now.

You know, it's one thing to develop a relationship with someone and it's another thing to live with the pain of losing ties with the one person you've essentially shared everything about life with. However, it had me reflecting about all the moments we shared,the fun games like hide and seek, cosplaying as mother and dad, preparing our own meals outdoors etc.

Well, till next time, Do have a wonderful day

I know the pains that comes from loosing such a friend but life goes on afterwards. I believe that everything happens for a reason. If you two are destined to be, life would somehow get you in touch again
