I bid you farewell.

Not out of spite, anger, or hate. Not out of frustration nor disappointment. I’m not hoping you fail, falter, or fade.

You have been the best thing that’s ever happened to me. You’ve showed me so much and taught me even more. Your guidance, support, and freedom have opened more doors than I ever knew existed.

It’s not with a heavy heart or sorrowful eyes in which I say goodbye, it is with a lightness and serenity that can only be found by letting go. A quiet, supportive resignation of our time coming to an end. This is not goodbye, it is Until Next Time.

May your clothes become threadbare to show you that you never needed to wear them. May you be hungry so you know food. May you be cold to know warmth. May you be loved, even if only by yourself.
