I said goodbye to someone today

There is something about goodbyes. Something deeper than sadness. When you really do wish the best for each other and part ways. I don't think I am qualified enough to put to words what exactly the emotion is that accompanies a cordial goodbye.I said goodbye to someone today. Someone who has been an important part of my life for a couple of years. A good friend and a person who I am glad I got the chance to know. We will meet again, may be. And when we do we will be good friends with pleasant memories of each other. We will also be different people. We would have grown, changed and weathered by all the experiences that come our respective individual ways. So today, we said goodbye to the people who we have been while we have known each other. I already know that I am not who I was when we first met. A lot of ups and downs have come my way since then and the person I am as I said bye today is not the person who said hello back then. I am also not good at saying goodbye, or so I thought, till I said goodbye with a smile on my face, genuinely looking forward to seeing how things would be when we say hello again someday. Maybe years from now. So, yes.. I said goodbye to someone today.
