see you later

What is that saying – certain people come into your lives for certain reasons?

Some stay longer than others – and there are friends who last forever?

I feel as if I have made many friendships that will last forever as I say goodbye – or “see you later” these past few days. I shed many tears of joy and gratitude for my blessing of friends in Rochester. (And as I read that over again I realize that I sound like a religious Hallmark card.)

I feel the love. It is deep. It is real. It is sincere.

Can friendship be one of the strongest bonds between human beings? I think yes – aside from true love.

I share tears, joy, love, hardship, struggles, frustration, laughs – and maybe most importantly *time* doing all of the above with many beautiful people in my six years here. It is definitely difficult to say “see you later” to those who shape my days. I appreciate each and every one of my fabulous friends.

The open road lies ahead - unchartered waters and new horizons. Let my instinct be my guide. Let the “best is yet to be” be the first sentence in my new chapter.

Get out and live…
