Today was my last day of work. I tried to catch as many regular customers, and volunteers, as I could to say goodbye. One of my work-friends arranged a goodbye party for me at a restaurant and I had a great time, and then it was more hugs and saying goodbye to everyone. Thanks to Mme Miroir I'm a PRO at hugging now--it's like she had me in training all year just for this moment! I've had SO many well wishes, I feel like things can't possibly go badly--there is way too much positive vibes zipping around!
Honestly I was humbled by it all. And I tried to find a song that expresses how I'm feeling, but couldn't. And finally realized it's because I believe what Oscar Wilde once wrote: "Life is far too important a thing ever to talk seriously about."
So instead I looked for my most favorite most frivolous song at the moment.
It's so great to have all those people happy to have had you in their lives and sorry to see you going and willing to celebrate your next step. And hugs are a good thing: I think they transmit the energy of love and caring and positive things.
