Goodbye

So I’m finally back to writing. And oddly enough, I’ve come to say goodbye. It’s important to keep a record of things. As some writers have expressed, it’s impossible to know where our emotions are taking us if we’re not perfectly clear on where we’ve been. When I was writing here over a year ago, one of my friends expressed how remarkable it will be to someday look back and review this record of my sadness, and, God willing, be grateful for my progress. I didn’t really understand how right she was until last week, when I reviewed some of what I had written. That was some journey. So goodbye to all that. Goodbye to the sadness, and to everything that that sadness affected. And it’s only now, now that I can hold my head up and say these things, that I am ready to fully welcome my new life. A new city, new state, new job, and new love. Hello to all that!
