I think a good practice is to never say Goodbye unless there is no chance that you will see the person gain. Goodbye is too permanent and since we are not the controllers of our fate although we help to design it we must be careful that we are not closing a door which one day we will need to have it reopened.

No Goodbyes No matter how hard the times may be Or the differences that we might see God brought you into my life One day there will be no more strife Only joy and love that day we’ll know Don’t give up today and tomorrow don’t go Be as brave for me as I am for you You are the gem I always knew Eventually I’ll meet and would please my eyes So don’t leave my dear, please, No Goodbyes!
