Thought of my friend Richard Walker today, when a song came on TV....I miss him alot...at times i believe he was my soulmate......he seemed to always show up where i was...be it working, the mall, the bank, the post office...boy delivered mail to my job....

I saw him 2 days before he died back in 98, picking up the mail from the mailbox....he told me we needed to talk and that he would always be my friend regardless, that Carol, his mom always knew the real reason and hugged me right there...

We talked about some other things, like the baby he was expecting, his wife and his first love...another story...

He was killed while riding his motorcycle. His best friend called me at work and told me the news.....i couldn't believe it and still can't.

I miss him.....I miss my friend. :(

That is the only friend i have ever lost.....and i can honestly say, I don't know how i would handle it if i lost Denise, Tish, or Jody.....my best friends!

:( :(

Yeah...I do have good memories. I remember working at my 1st gov't job, hadn't been there 9 months and here comes Richard walkingthrough the door....i'm like what are yo doing here...he said working with you I hope....well we worked side by side for 3 years or so, until i left.

When he started, all the ladies thought he was cute and all of them wanted a piece of him...of course they wanted to know why he was so close with me and why he would never go to lunch with anyone else. They thought him and i were dating....we weren't but he wanted them to think that so they wouldn't bother him....so i played along.

Everytime i see a green toyota 4 runner i think of him.

I've missed several people in my life. I miss someone in particular right now, but I thank God for Jesus. I try to keep a couple of scriptures in my heart that helps me out and really brings my faith in God's ability to help me through the situation.

Luke 4:18; "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to HEAL THE BROKENHEARTED, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised". I remind myself that He took my pain and sorrow for me on the Cross. That He came to heal my broken heart.

Then I go to II Corinthians 4:17; "For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory". If I make it through this situation, through this sorrow and hurt, that it will work to my glory in the end. He will reward me with something far greater than what I lost.

Then I remember Isaiah 53:5; "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed." I have peace because He took my suffering on the Cross.

I don't know if this helps at all, sometimes we just want to miss someone and don't really want the feeling to go away. But I just wanted to say that I know the feeling and I hope that you feel better.
