its sad to say what we have today wont last or stay...
but i guess thats the way, it is, time will pass away...
each of us has to walk our own seperate paths...
and both the good and bad, times are left in the past...
but its definate that, i wont be forgetten the laughs
im thankful for the time we had, im just regrettn its passed.......

i hate saying good bye's...
and how friendships can seem like only one day in a life.....
i want to promise you'll forever stay in my heart, n stay in my mind
hopefully we'll meet again, maybe one day ours fates'll entwine...

at this very moment, one particular song comes to mind....
its a duet by two korean singers, kim jo han and page...
the title of the song is "how do I, say good bye?"... and although i havnt paid that much attention
to the lyrics (mainly cuz its in korean), the title is making me think....
just how do i say good bye......

i guess ill leave it as it is....
maybe its a lil late to get sentimental....... or maybe this is normal timing....
either way, as time continues to eat away at summer...
im forced to say my farewells to more and more people.....

its hit me the hardest this past weekend
with the light house dinner for incoming college freshman
and the OFM senior banquet..... ive realized... everything
is about to change.....
i think the absoulte worst part of it all is the fact that.... im forced to say bye
to people whom ive just started a friendship with, its almost like...
"ok im getting to know you, but yea.... sorry it was nice knowing the little i do know of you"

so i guess... this is for those whom ive met just this yr, and whom i may never see again...

goodbye, keep god in your hearts, and remember, through a life of change....
he is the one CONSTANT in your life.....

as the group avalon so beautifully put it

"I could live life alone
And never feel the longings of my heart
The healing warmth of someone's arms

And I could live without dreams
And never know the thrill of what could be
With every star so far and out of reach
I could live without many things
And I could carry on, but...
I couldn't face my life tomorrow
Without Your hope in my heart I know
I can't live a day without You
Lord, there's no night and there's now morning
Without Your loving arms to hold me
You're the heartbeat of all I do
I can't live a day without you
"

its hard to say.... but it hurts to let go of the ppl close to us.......
but no matter what, dont let go of god....
for that hurts the most of all

farewell, to those who've already left my life, im sorry i couldnt relay this msg to you all sooner....
hopefully some of you will be able to catch this, b4 you move on....

peace, one love
