Just like forgive, forget and try again ... GOODBYE IS JUST ANOTHER WORD

There's nothing that's so final about leaving
Even though I know that's what you've heard
Just like forgive, forget and try again
Goodbye is just another word.

This post is dedicated to all those who have had to bid "goodbye" to a loved one ...

"Don't be dismayed at goodbyes, a farewell is necessary before you can meet again and meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends or 

soul mates."

                                                                     - Richard Bach

But in reality there are no goodbyes, and if we ever have to bid a goodbye at all, let it be only to our demons and fears. 

Life always goes in a full circle , there are no ends.

Sometimes it is so heartening to suddenly see a old member come back to my class after an unexplained long gap and just as i have mentally written them off , one fine morning, I suddenly see the person, I am treated to a pleasant surprise. I may in turn treat the person to a stern "where have you been for so long" look. But, inside I am smiling and wink to myself (there are no goodbyes, also wondering if they are gonna disappear again). Life is a circle .

So leaving you all to enjoy your weekend with some lines for a furry friend who indeed sneaked off in the night:

If you feel the time is right

And you sneak off in the night
And live out all those stories in your head
When your shiny knight goes home
And you're left there all alone
And you need a friend remember what I said.

There is nothing that's so final about leaving , goodbye is just another word.
