We spend so much of our lives without a chance to say goodbye.
That person I sat next to in class, the semester ends and I never get to tell her I'm glad it was her in that seat.
The teacher who changed my life leaves it without a word, without a warning that today is the last time I get to listen.
A storm hits the house and there is no chance to sit by my bed one more time.
BUT.
Sometimes, we have that chance. Sometimes we get to live life to the hilt and lunge out on limbs to look crazy and tell people that they changed our lives, that losing them hurts, and that it's worth it to have known them.
Write about someone who has that chance and takes it.
Forget socially acceptable. Forget normal. Say goodbye.
