Goodbyes...

Frankly, I am just not good at goodbyes.  One of my TTF's was here for over 10 days...you would think that was a great amount of time.  But after endless playdates and beach dates, and hikes and all...it really just left me wanting MORE!  I really detest that we are separated by a plethora of miles!  I am however, grateful for all the time they carved out for us while they were visiting.

Last night I finished the fifth season of one of my dad's favorite shows.  He always tried to get me to watch, but I didn't start watching it until after his passing unexpectedly this summer.  Each episode felt like sitting down with him in the living room and discovering something he loved.  When I watched the last episode last night I felt a little empty.  It was a sad and hollow goodbye and again...I really don't like goodbyes.

Today I finished a lovely little book that I borrowed a few days ago.  I was enjoying it so...I wish it had been 800 pages instead of a mere 250...and it was another goodbye.

Never leave anything left unsaid...you never know when you might be saying goodbye...or you might not get to say goodbye.  You can't say I LOVE YOU too much!

Changing the world...ONE letter at a time!
