Today at work I said goodbye to a friend who is returning home after 3 years of teaching abroad. She's going to South Africa, were it's winter during my summer and everyone's accents are super awesome.
It's a little strange, working in a place where you can make friends so quickly, and the watch them finish up their contracts and head off - who knows if you'll ever meet up again? In her farewell speech she DID say "I don't say goodbye, but instead, 'see you later'" and I think that is an amazing way to look at it.
