There are special people in our lives who never leave us, even after they are gone, When I drive the Datsun 240Z you are with me in sprint. I miss you girlfriend. We had some great times together.

We all lose friends.. we lose them in death, to distance and over time. But even though they may be lost, hope is not. The key is to keep them in your heart, and when the time is right, you can pick up the friendship right where you left off. The worst part of holding the memories is not the pain. It´s the loneliness of not being able to continue. A moment lasts for seconds but the memories lasts forever. Thank you Cheryl Wheeler for such a fun time.
