Good Bye

There are times we have to say good bye to things. It seems to be sad at the time, but it can be for the good.

When were are little we have to say good-bye to baby blankets and Binky's. Later we have to say good-bye to crying when we get a shot, or other childish ways. Some of us don't and everyone can see we are still being a child. It looks bad at 25 and even worse at 50.

As we age we have to say good by to our young bodies and grown to love the new one. Even if it doesn't' allow us to do the things we used to. Its not fun and its not easy, we can grow older gracefully, if we try,

I have been saying good bye to all the old pounds that had been sticking around for years. That has been a great feeling.

Now I have to say good bye to a part of me I have loved and hated. It will be a good thing and while it won't be easy, in the end it will be better for me. I love my body and I love being a girl/woman. I am a little scared, and a little sad to tell the truth. But in the end, I'm not going to miss it in the least.

So I say good bye to this part of my life and look forward to the next chapter.
