Today I said goodbye to my best friend at work.
What hadn't occurred to me before was that I had been the person leaving so many times myself, I was not the person staying.
I had watched her progress to this day for the last 4 years. Read her assignments, encouraged and made her laugh when she felt the load was to much to bear.
Today was her time to stand in the spotlight, as much as she hates that spot, she shone brightly and I was proud to call her friend.
So now I have have this bone weary sadness that makes me sigh.
Change is the only constant in life. Things will change tomorrow and we can never sure if it is for the better or worse, only that things tomorrow never be quite the same again.
I will go and ride my bike and hope to leech some of this sadness from my soul.
Tomorrow is a new day, new and full of promise!
