Forever goodbyes kind of blow my mind too, just like Tim. Especially when you spend day in and day out with a co-worker and realize that you'll never ever see them again. Kind of weird! The latest blog stylings of La Petite Chic: Fabulous Find Friday - Garage Sale Edition

No, you're not a freak of nature for this reaction at all. It's very similar to the reaction that I have about it, and I think it's a healthy way of dealing with separations. Honestly, if I never said goodbye to anyone forever, my life would be overcrowded with too many relationships for any of them to be strong, because they would be too diluted. You know that corny line we've all heard over the years that "people come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime"? I think that's very true. Sometimes you just have a relationship with someone that is strong, but not destined to be long-lasting. People sometimes fulfill a role in your life that is complete after a short time and then it's over. You have learned what you needed to from them, so it's time to say goodbye. I have stopped getting sentimental over that - I just enjoy the people I have in my life at any given moment. And I try to accept it when a relationship has run its course, either because it fades on its own or because we're forced apart geographically or something else.

I think the way I deal with forever goodbyes is that in the moment of the goodbye I don’t think of it as forever. Even though its extremely unlikely, there is always that slight possibility that you could happen to run into each other some other time in life.

I feel pretty comfortable with good-byes, but it doesn't mean I like them. I just know there are some friends that are forever friends, while others are just for a season. Doesn't mean they aren't important, you just have to be willing to let go at the end of the season. The latest blog stylings of Ronnica: Travel News (or News Travels)
