What really counts

I've been thinking recently about friends, and how important they really are.
Sadly, I've somehow lost contact with them recently, even some of the ones that live on this continent....well in the same country really.
I've put other things as priority, I've disappeared from the routine of life that I had a while ago, and I've changed.
Perhaps not even in a good way, I'm still reassessing that at the moment.
I've got a lot to be thankful for, but if I don't nurture the friendships I have...then I have nothing, and no one to share all the gratitute I have.
So perhaps this is a post to say I'm sorry...that I still think about all of you who are so far away, even though the communication is about nil...and to those who are on the same continent,well, that I'm sorry I've put other things priority and taken for granted what is really important.
I just want all of you to know, that, you've been there for me when times are tough, and I'm very thankful for that.
I just hope you know you can count on me when times are tough for you as well.
Things have been a bit complicated for me recently, I've mixed up what really counts and closed people off, but I'm trying to change that now.
First steps are always the hardest to take, but I'm going to do better this time.
