Hellos are coupled with farewells. Here are some lines from my recent read, The Time Traveler's Wife which relates and remedies my "People Always Leave" syndrome in a couple of ways:
"It's hard being left behind. I wait for Henry not knowing where he is, wondering if he's okay. It's hard to be the one who stays."
"I won't ever leave you, even if you're always leaving me."
"Sometimes I'm happy when he's gone, but I'm always happy when he returns"
"I wanted someone to love who would stay: stay and be there, always."
"I go to sleep alone, and wake up alone. I take walks, I work until I'm tired. I watch the wind play with the trash that's been under the snow all winter. Everything seems simple until you think about it. Why is love intensified by absence?"

Looking at this photo, I can't help but wish we can stay near to each other. Long distance relationships are not only for couples, they struck friendships as well. We had a fun time last night but after all the laughs, we will eventually go on separate ways in the coming weeks. Hellos were exchanged. Now, you know what's next. Now only if I have Clare Abshire's consistent unfailing strength for being the one who stays.
Love and Bliss!
Love and Bliss!
