saying goodbye

This weekend was hard. I had to say goodbye to a few people that I love and that have been a part of my life since coming to college, yeah that would be the last 5 years... Some would say I'm a wuss because I have such a hard time, maybe the part that is hard is not knowing what's going to happen to our relationship, it's obviously going to change, but how...One person I had to say goodbye, or as we say "see you later" was particularly hard, but luckily I had two other really good friends there to console me. She is gone for 27 months. Sunday at church I was having a really hard time being there and wanted to leave. Since Saturday night was the night I said goodbye I was still pretty emotional about it all and found myself crying throughout worship. So instead of going home I went to the nursery were two amazing girls allowed me to cry into there arms. Then I started crying because God has really blessed me with amazing friends, I mean just all around beautiful people. So I said that it felt like a part of me was gone for 27 months (ok a little cheesy, but really how I feel) and Adriane said to see it as part of me on an adventure for those 27 months experiencing incredible things. That is a good way to put it. So until that time ends I will just enjoy the adventure that part of me is on.
