Hello Goodbye
Life is all about the timing.
I fell in love over the course of a several hours last Saturday. I'd only intended to stay out a couple hours, as I was still processing my recent breakup. But then I met Alex. We ended up dancing and talking until dawn, bouncing from one club to the next around the city, and I decided that here, finally, was the love of my life.
It turns out he was pulling one last all-nighter before leaving for a new posting in Olive Branch, Mississippi.
Just as I was saying hello, he was saying goodbye.
