A Week of Good Byes

Have you ever really thought about what it means to say "Good Bye?"

The dictionary says that Good Bye is:
1. An acknowledgement at parting.
2. An act of parting or leave-taking.

That pretty well sums up the last week for me.

On Wednesday, I "acknowledged at parting" a friend who was moving back to her home country.

On Friday, I participated in the "act of parting or leave-taking" after four years of working at an awesome company.

Today, I said "Good Bye" to a dear woman of God who passed away over the weekend.

Some good byes are inevitably sad, but some are more along the lines of "see you later."

Christine, I hope to see you later.

MM, I'll see you soon.

Sis. Sylvester, I'll see you again one day.

Good Bye for now.

Back to work.

It's back to work for me today. No more vacation. No more rest.

Thankfully, I'm blessed to have a job that can be fun.

Of course attitude does make a difference.

Today's attitude:

"Hey guys! I'm back!" 
"How are you? Tell me about your vacation."

Oh, yeah. Let's get some work done while we chat.

Ahhh. It's good to be back.
