Goodbyes are never easy. But this isn’t goodbye; this is “See ya later!”
One of the best parts of travel is meeting and connecting with people at the most unexpected places and moments in time. It’s always a little sad to part ways, but life has a funny way of bringing people together again (and it’s always a surprise).
You cross paths with people halfway across the world; on the streets of Singapore, on a train to Seoul, at a hostel in Japan, or on a bus tour around Europe. What matters isn’t how long you’ve known one another, because a brief moment can make a huge impact that can last a lifetime.
As Maya Angelo said, “At the end of the day people won't remember what you said or did, they will remember how you made them feel.” So, make everything around you beautiful— especially your heart.
You might be in touch with these people for many years to come. Even if you lose touch, when you’re in their vicinity, you’ll reach out without hesitation because you know—that the connection will continue from where you both left off.
And this goes with all the people in your life. If the connection was truly meaningful, they’d forever have a special place in your heart.
