Just Give Me Something to Hold On to

There are pivotal moments in life, times when everything you once knew suddenly looks different.  People you once thought of as close friends are now seemingly unimportant in the scheme of things.  Things that you took for granted are now fleeting.  Everything changes.   I am in the midst of one of these times now.  I am constantly questioning, constantly unsure.  At the same time, I have a clean slate.  No one here knows anything I've ever done, which I guess is both a good thing and a bad.  We all need to start over sometimes, but it's hard to completely lose everything you've known.  Sometimes it's comforting to know that there are people who know everything about you and still love you.  That's still there I guess, but they aren't here, right here, right now.   Electronic conversations just aren't the same as being able to hug someone.  It's also funny how close you can feel to someone over the internet or the phone, but in person everything changes.    Everything's new, everything's different, I'm just trying to be the same old me.
