A good way of saying a good bye


What really is a good way of saying a bye.A "Good Bye".A bye when said in person.A bye said with warmth,with sincerity,with meaning.Blah.We have all heard of its types.But how many have liked the sound of it.Well the irony of the word ridicules itself quite often.However my point is, the way you bid farewell to your loved ones till the next time you see them, actually does matter.Why do we have to say a bye at all is an absolutely different issue in itself.When the time comes, its something we all need to succumb to.So lets face it.How much of a bye is a good bye after all?Lets put it this way.Its not the first impression's alone that count.The lasting effect you have on a person when you bid a bye is important.And I believe so out of experience and out of will.Its a pacing world.Keep in touch is taken for granted.We can always email.chat.scrap.scribble on walls.poke. Skype.buzz.But my question is can we STILL keep in touch.But why should we.You were a part of my life.It was special.You still are.But don't seem to find the time.the topic.the need to share.then why bother anyway.Ah well.Its because we are social animals.Now how many times in your life time do you come across that.However all this pain is because we need to feel belonged.That people in corners,edges,slopes,coasts,bays think about you.miss you.pray for you.so that is why the whole initial mess of saying a Good Bye.Followed by the messier "Keep in touch".But what is even more messy is the hope,the expectations and the belief we leave behind with people along with the bye's.
To conclude, no matter how the keep in touches are (which depend more on the circumstances than the people), build up beautiful memories of a Good Bye.For it is those last few moments with those cherished people you always look back at, either with tears or with a smile.
