A friend in need

That would be me. ^_^

I just wanted to take a moment to express how very fond I am of the friends I have made in my digital journeys. You are a part of me. My life is enriched with your experiences and thoughts and feelings. Thank you for your trust and your companionship. And I will try ignore the little spike of fear in the back of my heart at the idea of losing my connection to a world where physical distance counts for naught and the ability to share time together may be lost. In a very real way, a friend moving on, disconnecting from our second lives, feeling the need to spend their focus and energy somewhere else is like death and they become beyond reach but not beyond thought.

I am determined not to make a list of names, however. If you read my blog and feel that connection, then know you are included in my thoughts and words. I hope, perhaps, the physical distance may be eliminated just for a day or a weekend to see the beauty of your smile and share the warmth of a hug. But that isn't necessary to hold your friendship close to me and bring a smile to my lips.

Thank you! Hugs and Kisses! - Wil
