I live on an island with a small group of people, and because of the nature of our job (we work for a lodge), be it dive instructors, massage therapists or biologists, people are always coming and going. A friend of mine left today, after being here for two years. On my way from home this morning this song started playing on my phone and I couldn't believe how perfectly it fit the situation. If we are fortunate enough to have a lot of people come into our lifes and hearts, we know we will most likely have to say goodbye (or at least a "see you later") sooner or later. Knowing this doesn't make it easier, cause it always sucks to say goodbye, but it sort of helps us to try and look at it as a good thing, as something good we had, and not as something we are losing. I love this song because it makes me remember all the amazing people I've met and how happy knowing them has made me.
