Girlfriends Suck Part 2

In a couple of months I will be turning 41 years old. 
I know SHOCKER!! 

Since the big 4-O so much has changed. I had people in my life, walk out, after being friends for 20+years. Most of us had been friends since high school, a couple since sixth grade. At the time it was sad losing them all at once, without really knowing why. People when they get older drift apart. I get that, this was more than that. 

Facebook has this "On This Day" that pops up in my notifications. Most of the time I giggle about what I posted, because I'm a dork! Then there are times that I had a hard day and posted about that. I take the time to thank God that I'm no longer in that place. I read the comments and hit the delete button on the comments of the people who are no longer in my life. 
It's like washing the dirty laundry. 

When I was younger I was told that once I hit a certain age I will no longer need the approval of other people and I will be able to walk away from things that I no longer need in my life. 
I think that I hit that age.  

So now when I think about it, does it really matter why? Those people are gone because they chose to walk out. 
Life as it's been said, moves on.
