Insomnia - H

When I was in 4th grade, one of the boys in the class was moving away in the middle of the year so we threw a going away party for him. I guess I sort of organized the party a bit, so someone told me I should say a few words. That caught me off guard b/c I didn't even know the kid that well and didn't have much to say. So, at the appropriate time, I stood up, tried my best to say something sentimental, and then cried sad tears. Tears?! Where did those come from?! I hardly knew the guy! In retrospect it was probably the fact that someone who was part of my world, even just a small part, was now going to be forever absent from it, and this was very sad to me. It still makes me sad when this happens. I guess that's life. It's constantly changing, even the people in your life. I don't like that part much.
