missing. missing. missing.

Ellie.

parting was: almost one year ago.

I still don't know how long missing lasts.

  2. "I still don't know how long missing lasts."
    What a beautiful and sad line.

    I really love the photos where Ellie is wearing a blue blanket and leaning on a table.

    Why did you part? (If you don't mind my asking.)

  3. I don't think the missing ever stops, just that we become excepting of it.

  4. Cassandra - thank you.

    geekspawn - ohh yes. most definitely.

    sayanotherlexi - thank you, Lexi. well, it wasn't permanent, her staying with us. she came for us to meet and stayed for about a month and then she went home, and there are two states between our respective homes.

    pinkapplecore - mm. who do you miss?

  5. My friend Jessica, I only get to see her a hand full of times in a year...maybe 6 tops but we have so much fun together.

  6. pinkapplecore - nods. is it one of those friendships where you see each other only occasionally, yet you still understand each other perfectly? those are precious.

  8. Missing lasts until forgetting, and I find it bittersweet...it's the good memories that cause the sorrow. Everyone who's lived and loved must miss someone, I think.

  9. aipingplum - thanks, miss. they were.

    Jenica - yes. sadness of absence is a healthy and universal sadness, I guess. I'd like to think, as a rule, that if it's someone worth missing, it's someone worth not forgetting.
