Have you ever say goodbye to your friends or best friends? If yes, how did you say and do it?
Right at this moment, I am too emotional because one of my teammates at work, who became one of my close friends, already resigned. I don't know how to say goodbye for I know in myself that I'm not ready yet to go back to work without seeing her.
Her smile lights up our day.
Her compassion and care make me feel loved.
Her laugh makes us laugh too.
Her encouragement makes me brave and motivated.
Her camaraderie boosts my confidence.
These are some of the reasons why I cherish her. She's genuine with a good heart. She's one of the people who help me to be brave at work and a person who believes in me.
I remembered that I also felt this feeling before in my previous job. What happened was, the manager decided to transfer our team leader to another department that made me sad and cried so hard because of the misunderstanding. Then, another team leader told me this "Don't attach yourself too much to someone because people come and go in our life". I always remember that, but it's too hard to not be attached to a genuine person with a good heart.
So here I am again, having the same feeling. I feel sadness and heartaches that make my face so ugly and changed my good mood. But, I'd like you to know that I'm very thankful to meet those people and thankful that they became part of my journey.
To my friend, "I'm wishing you a very nice future and a happy life. You are surely be missed at work. Goodbye for now, but let's meet and have fun soon". This was exactly the message I sent a few minutes ago and this is how I say goodbye.
Saying goodbye to a friend is one of the difficult things to do but this remind us that being alive is nice and amazing for it gives us people that come to our lives to make our world happy and contented and people who leave us to makes us strong, brave and move forward to another chapter of our lives where we meet new people who will give us another lessons and good memories.

It's really an emotional one especially if she's someone you're close to. Well, friendship will still remain but the bonds and emotional attachments will be lessen due to distance and availability of meeting schedules.
