A General Goodbye...

"Goodbyes makes you think. They make you realize what you've had, what you've lost and what you've taken for granted" 

I know goodbyes are never easy for anyone. For me, certain goodbyes are harder than others. We say goodbye to people unknowing of what the future withholds in it. We are unknowing as to what we have left behind for us to be remembered by. So yes, goodbyes...they make us think. As I have said goodbye to some people that mean so much to me...I wonder where has life gone? I was a freshman not too long ago. I was meeting these people and we were starting high-school together. Now we are leaving each other because we are grown up and we are starting a new stage in life. It came all so fast, yet...I remember thinking that my time for college couldn't come any slower. I realize that even during the heartaches, trials and tribulation...I had some amazing people who picked me up when I fell. They made me laugh when I wanted to cry. They had a greater impact on me than known. Everyone that has come to me in my life has left something. These people have helped me dream my dreams. They have helped me accomplish something that will make a difference in my life.  I've taken many friendships and I have leaned on them. I took full advantage of these friendships...because they meant something to me. They always will.

My only hope is that I have returned the favor in some way.

Thank You.

My life wouldn't be the same without those I've let into it. It wouldn't be the same without the memories, the laughter, the tears, the struggles, or the moments of thriving we have shared together.

So thank you, for providing this. Thank you for being you. 

I consider myself lucky to know all these people that have been and will be so hard to say goodbye to.

"The song is ended, but the melody lingers on."

This is what I believe to be true. Highschool being our song...our friendship being the melody. I guess as I sit here thinking about what I want to relay, and what it is I'm trying to say...I have come up with this.

This is only a temporary goodbye...because our song may have ended but this friendship, these beautiful friendships I have created, are not something that will ever end in my heart. We all have fallen in love with the song...but a song gets old. The melody is what makes the song worth it. It is the reason everyone falls in love with the song. It's the core. In my case, my friendships, good or bad, lost or not, were what made highschool, complete. I cannot recall all the math I learned, or the science that never made sense to me, but I can recall the lessons learned from every friendship. I can recall all the smiles and laughter from every friendship. I can recall the memories worth recalling because...they meant something to me. They meant more to me than the history lessons or the acting methods that have been taught to me. 

So this is obviously a general goodbye. Because I am not going to write about every single friend that has meant something to me as I say goodbye to them. This applies to everyone in my life... at some point in time. 

I am a grateful girl, yet again. 

I'm lucky.

I'm blessed.

I'm happy.

I live a regret free life as of now.
