At first, I am ready to dive in. I am thrilled to take that jump, to stop him in the hall, and softly start to say to him “Hello”. It is the same feeling that I get when opening that fresh new jar of peanut butter. The soothing, yet exhilarating feeling of removing the lid, and grabbing that cold silver spoon, and just dipping it in. In a beginning relationship, I try to let all of the good things sink in and praise what I have. I know I must savor each moment because I never know when it could abandon me. I know that savoring every bite of the creamy goodness is crucial to the experience of consuming the peanut butter. I soon become aware as I see the amount decreasing, that it will soon be all gone. When I am with him, I am at home. I never …show more content…
I find myself asking for more and more time. I want to be with him forever, and I never want to find the end of this jar. We go to his place, we are alone and he leans over to me and gently says “Sweetheart, I love you” and kisses me. I feel my heart racing as I reply and show him how much he matters to me. I witness myself enjoying each second with him. It is funny how a kiss is a spoonful of peanut butter. As with peanut butter, I enjoy every bite, every time the spoon touches my tongue, and every time I feel that creamy texture. Everything at this time just seems perfect and I could be in this state for as long as I …show more content…
As much as it pains me to say goodbye, I knew this was bound to happen. I start to think of how I will grow stronger and all the delightful time spent taking part in this relationship. I find myself asking if it is worth it to find the good in this. I figured it was not, and I should just try to push through it all. I know myself better than that. I knew I would cry, and that is exactly what I did. I knew I could no longer be strong. And just when I thought it could not get any worse, I reach the end. I see the clear plastic at the bottom and I freeze. I cannot believe this is happening to me. I start to think of how I could recover, or if I ever
The time was running fast and I had a couple days left to spend some time with my family and friends. At that time I realized of people I will miss, and I wouldn’t able to meet them again. Even for my parents, it was the toughest time leaving all families and friends behind and start a new life in a new place.
Goodbye's are often some of the hardest things we as human beings have to say and do. Keith Rivers and Tyler Wilson's Gone Goodbye explores the difficulty in saying goodbye and leaving the life you knew behind, as well as the monotony of living you life by only going through the motions instead of enjoying it and actually living. Told through the narration of a 'Dear John' type of letter, the viewer listens to the man's reasons for leaving Catherine while we watch him driving and then staring out at the wide and open ocean. Saying goodbye, especially when that goodbye is hard and confrontational like the ending of a serious relationship, can be too much for certain people to do in person so they do something like write a goodbye letter instead. This man's letter is 'Dear John' like, but not exactly one.
Where do I start? How do I begin a farewell when I still can't believe you're gone? How do I say goodbye to a part of my soul?

I cannot believe that it has been a month since my boyfriend decided to end our relationship. Sometimes I feel as though it is all a bad dream. Then I realized that I lost my best friend and the heartbreak sets in time after time again. Our relationship, from my point of view, was filled with nothing but endless laughter and most importantly love. I honestly felt like I was living in a fairy tale. Every single day, I was thanking God for this blessing he put into my life. Unfortunately, every good thing must come to an end. The end of our love was closer than I thought.
Seven years have passed since our first encounter and in those past seven years, we have made many memories and parted ways several times. Whenever we parted ways, we were led back to each other as if there was a spark between us. Ever since you entered my life I felt as if God somehow sent one of his angels down to me. Over the last few months, I feel like my heart has grown stronger because of the love I have for you. This love gets stronger and stronger each and every day.
After exchanging smiles and hugs, I step back and fill to the brim with amazement at
