Going thru junk.....

And I found an old poem I wrote about 20 years ago. Since we are going thru a move, it seems really relavant right now.I think it sounds a bit like a greeting card. LOL, but that doesn't make it any less true. :)

The only good in goodbye, is the next hello.
When people who care are seperatated, there is an almost physical pain.
There is also the surety of the ache of "see you later" is far outweighed by the joy of a shared past and memories of time together and building your friendship.
The pain of saying goodbye is merely the price tag attached to caring about wonderful, special people.
The more special and wonderful the person is, the higher that price tag runs.

Seems like we military families have to deal with this so much. I think learning to love and leave friends is one of the hardest things about the military life.
I know it's one of my top three least favorite things about the Army.
