Many people say it without thinking what it means and often they don't realize that goodbyes never leave. Goodbye - that word alone has a memory needed ones, unexpected ones, happy ones, emotional ones. I have not found a goodbye that you can't read. And the heartache it brings when those words are said is sometimes overwhelming, but think of this instead: Goodbye - a word for every tear that's shed joyful tears, hopeless tears, sad tears, depressing tears. Your goodbye does not have to be full of emptiness. So when that goodbye comes crashing into your thoughts, remember all the good, that goodbye has brought. Goodbye - a word for forever, it really is not only a second, only a minute, only a day, only a time. It's simply for the moment in which you have been caught. Many people say it without thinking what it means and often they don't realize that goodbyes never leave. Goodbye - that word is for your heart to see times you shared, ways you cared, love you felt, embraces you held. That is why goodbyes are left inside your memory Copyright January 15, 1999 by Bobbie J. BrownBirth sign: Scorpio
