Pondering

I ran into an old friend today. I love K. She is always a ray of sunshine and a prayer warrior. She has unknowingly pulled me through some bleak times. But what she said really hit me. She made the comment that she wakes up in the morning next to a stranger. Wow! She and B have been married 20 plus years and have one son. He is getting ready to graduate from high school. She said that she and B have been so busy raising their son that they really don't know each other anymore. She is clearly concerned about life with B, without the son's activities. I don't think they have a bad marriage...I think we get so busy that we lose ourselves along the way.
