This is a Quote from a film that I really like, the Shawshank redemption! It is an amazing film if you have not seen it go ahead and check it out.. This is a line that Red says after his friend Andy has escaped from the prison

"Sometimes it makes me sad, though, Andy being gone. I have to remind myself that some birds aren't meant to be caged, that's all. Their feathers are just too bright and when they fly away, the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up does rejoice...but still, the place you live is that much more drab and empty that they're gone.

I guess I just miss my friend."

I totally get what Red is saying here, having to say goodbye to your friends sucks, but sometimes it is for theirs, yours and everyone's best. But like Red I guess I just miss my friend... I know it is hard now, but I still do trust God that it will all be ok and that His plan for all of us is best. I think for me I am having to come to terms with having to trust God even when it is scary and I have no idea that it will work out, but I guess that is what trust is. Believing in the reality of God and his provision and plans for us over what we naturally see or can imagine.
