I’m not the first to say it: goodbyes suck. They’re often awkward and always painful. Last Saturday I said goodbye to my friends, last tuesday, to my family, in preparation for my departure to France for the next 11 months.
No doubt goodbye is the hardest part of any journey. However, there is a part of me that likes goodbyes, because with them comes a promise of something new to begin. Goodbyes are the both the acknowledgement of a journey to be taken, and the promise to take it; it’s the resolution to move forward.
And so, even though I will miss what I’ve left behind, I resolve not to waste my time missing. I’m set to embark on the adventure of my life; may as well enjoy it!!
