I always tell myself not to get attached to people, but\u2026sometimes it can\u2019t be helped. And I\u2019m coming to learn that that\u2019s not a bad thing but\u2026it does so often come with goodbyes, even temporary ones.<\/p>\n<p>And Freya do I ever hate goodbyes.<\/p>\n<p>Especially airport goodbyes.<\/p>\n<p>I really don\u2019t know how my parents do it so consistently.

And that\u2019s good, and exciting and happy! But\u2026for right now? For right this moment?
