We lost touch but ended up meeting up after a long time and I found out that she'd had an awful miscarriage and was in hospital and now can't have more kids. I had no idea that she was going through such an awful time. Everyone has their own struggles.dublinerinDeutschlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14804856792598440633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3178366214524455884.post-76878357684084177262017-05-02T21:20:17.247-04:002017-05-02T21:20:17.247-04:00I love that quote, and it's one I sometimes sa...I love that quote, and it's one I sometimes say to myself when I am getting frustrated with someone else. (Though I also wish others would think that before interacting with me!) I'm glad you're reconnecting with them now.Lollipop Goldsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01020874415819057995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3178366214524455884.post-70610996211975558652017-05-02T06:35:55.484-04:002017-05-02T06:35:55.484-04:00One good thing about getting older is that it has ...One good thing about getting older is that it has sunk in definitively that it's not always about me - life happens to everyone, and I just don't get sensitive about things like I did before. I see that people have their own stuff going on; I also compute that people just don't care about my stuff much, a lot of the time - and I'm alright with it now. I'm glad you've started reconnecting with people, it's nice; I hope to too.Different Shoreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01552043510975777003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3178366214524455884.post-19762962696026794012017-05-02T00:58:54.130-04:002017-05-02T00:58:54.130-04:00That's so true.

We just had a conversation while walking in the woods this weekend about how we distanced ourselves from so many people, that we felt isolated but we did a fair amount of isolating ourselves, too. It is encouraging to know that you can rekindle these relationships, the ones that aren't too damaged from everything. It is hard when in the thick of people raising their children and you feeling that absence keenly, but that's good that there's hope. And a good reminder that everyone has their struggles.
