Hard Time letting Go
The Jeff Buckley song “Last Goodbye” seems to be my theme song lately. The line “I’ll would only make you cry… this is our last goodbye.” Is something that I feel more and more lately.
I have been meeting soo many interesting and beautiful people over the last few months that I am really finding it hard letting go. I just wish I had a huge bus and could take everyone along with me and never have to say that word “Goodbye”.
The first 4 years of my intense traveling I didn’t make as many friends. I guess I wasn’t immersing myself into a country or culture like I am now. I feel if you’re open to meeting people and whiling to except new things, there seems to be people everywhere that are whiling to share a little part of their life with you. For the first time in my life I am starting to feel connected, I am now a part of the fabric called life, I am life, I’m not sitting on the sidelines as a spectator watching people live their lives… I am blazing my own trail and making the best of the short time I have here. It feels strange to say, but if I died tomorrow I would die a happy young man… I have done everything I have ever wanted to and more. I am now apart of this world, and when I go I will leave apart of me with everyone I have touched.
It’s sad, but I guess if I only have a short time with someone, I can always say well at least I had the time at all. Instead of wanting more, I’m glad to have meet you and will take a part of you with me forever!

hmmmm…Nothing is forever; although with that being said, you have hope to see them again. its a bit of a double edge sword…its life and the beauty of the unknown.
doesn’t make it easier by any means. great attitude to have to be grateful for the time you have had with the person(s). i could easily fill this up with cliches but i won’t.
glad to read you are connecting and glad that you are sharing. don’t think there is anything greater in this world than the ability to connect with people and appreciate the time.
