Goodbye Hello

Why can't we get all the people together in the world that we really like and then just stay together? Mmmm...I guess that wouldn't work. Someone would have to leave. Someone always leaves. Then we have to say good-bye. I hate good-byes. I know what I need. I need more hellos! Remember each time you felt this way, after the numerous good byes that would have come your way. The first set of goodbyes when you left school for college. And then the second set of goodbyes when you left college for work. Then more goodbyes, always trickling through. Just pondering over it because after a long time saw a friend off, only not sure that we'd ever meet again. She casually mentioned, "Hey you know what we may not ever see each other again". But its all good, right? A litle bit of dismay on a farewell does mean something wonderful. A time well spent. A bouquet of great memories. Because for sure a farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or after a lifetime, is certain for those who are friends. So surely there is some good in a goodbye. And of course it is that time to exchange some wonderful gifts :)

Sometimes there are feelings like this which we never write and this happens with all of us quite often. I guess most of the people share the same feeling which you wrote here. Nice one, i must say.

Nice,,, Very nice ;) .
It is very hard to say bye but as you said, that is part and parcel of life and these "bye"s and "hi"s is what makes life more interesting. But the good thing is when we say "bye" we know that we have spent lot of great hours together which can be treasured. It would be a great fun when we meet together and talk about that silly little things we did in past. All in all she will be really missed. But just remember, when we meet again we talk about this blog too ;)
