As most of you know, the decision has been made to return home, again.
This time, it wasn't as easy.
This time, it's not just to take a break.
This time, I have only one reason.
This time, it's real.

The Time Has Come, Again.
And it's not easy because I love James,
a lot and he loves me.
We've invested a lot into this relationship.
Between him first driving to MN, the visits that followed, his move to MN, my visit to NY and my move and return to NY.
All that time, mostly spent together.

We've become so close,
which doesn't make it easy.
The Time Has Come, Again.
And it's not easy because with all the moving we've both done,
it's hard to say either of us would be interested in trying it again.
This is probably the last time I'll live in NY.

This time, there isn't a possibility in our minds we'll be together again,
which doesn't make it easy.
The Time Has Come, Again.
And it's not easy because, I have very few issues with James.
There aren't major things that would cause me to break up with him,
if it weren't for being so far from home.
Of course we have our little things,
but they don't really add up and weigh more than the really great things!
We get along almost all the time and
we know each other so well,
which doesn't make it easy.

And it's not easy because, it's real and it's happening.
I will be going from seeing him everyday to not seeing him at all.
I will no longer be spending most of my time around him,
instead I will be spending no time at all with him.
I will be leaving one of my best friends behind,
which doesn't make it easy.
The Time Has Come, Again....
...which doesn't make it easy.

Yes, the time has come.
ReplyDeleteI'm both sad and thrilled. And so I can only imagine you feel the two opposing emotions all the more so.
You've summed it up well in this post.
I know it will be hard but I also know that you are making a decision for YOU... and that will make it worthwhile.
Love you.
Can't wait to have you home.
We are praying for both you and James. You've been together for a long time and I'm sure this is very hard on both of you. You have lost nothing in this relationship but have learned things you never would have without knowing each other. If your both following and trusting in Christ and you both think this is the best, then God will see you through.
ReplyDeleteProverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.
God's Blessings to both of you!
With so much Love,
Mom & Dad
