Nature's first green is gold, according to Frost; its hardest hue to hold. Nothing gold can stay. That's certainly true. I have moved around a lot in my life, and it's weird how nothing ever lasts forever--not even goodbye. People, places, things have a way of coming back to you when you least expect it. It sounds trite, and probably is, but its true.
The only constant in life is change, but that's alright. Leaf subsides to leaf. Change does not always mean death. The beauty of a sunrise is transient, too. It matures to bright noon. Even the night has its share of beauty. Without the night, the beauty of the milky way would never be seen, now would it?
We are having to say "see ya later" to a good friend. She's graduating and moving far away. We'll miss her deeply. However, I know that she's going on to bigger and better things. :-) I wouldn't want to keep her cooped in the nest forever, and am honored to have known her.
Fly free, Melissa. We'll always be here for you.
