Goodbyes are can be 1 of 2 things: relieving, or regretful.
I feel like I have had one too many goodbyes in 2009. And I often wonder where I went wrong. I am not a quitter and I wont be one either-- I just hate it when things end on that note. It hurts my ears, and my heart.
But it has always been hard losing friends; and it always will be. People who have become apart of your life for years and just walk out. Uprooting themselves and you and shaking up your world. People fade, they become jaded, they lose sight of things they've known for years and somehow lose themselves in the noise. As they moved left and I stayed right; fading between the lines of truth and blame... we're no longer friends. Somewhere along this road of bittersweet change and resentment I've lost friends. We drove until we lost the road, and then broke with the ones we once followed.
I find it is especially difficult when you're the one left picking up the pieces. When you were the one that was left behind as others moved on, and filled the space you once took up in their hearts. The front seat of their car, the seconds on their clock. It's where I used to be.
Even though you have moved on; I want you all to know the place you held in my heart will never be filled. Because I am true to you.
No regrets.
Just memories, and experiences that I will always hold close to my heart.
Just remember... don't forget to say goodbye.
Loved,
-S

Sad post, but very true. Just remember that everything (the good and the bad, the easy and the difficult) happen for a reason. Good-byes are hard, but more often than not they are necessary and what we need to grow and continue on becoming the people we need to be.
