We said goodbye to some good friends of ours this weekend. They are moving to Pennsylvania for a new job. It's always sad to say goodbye. I've had lots of good friends leave over the years, and it always takes a part of me away.
So we toasted one last time and promised to visit, but we all know that may never happen.
I do wish them well. I feel like my friends must have when I moved to Arizona all those years ago. New adventures await the departed, while those left behind get the same old life with a great big new hole in it.
"You left, your tired family grieving
And you think they're sad because you're leaving
But did you see jealousy in the eyes
Of the ones who had to stay behind..."
- The Smiths, London
