Good Bye 2018

I don't even know if it is appropriate to write "Good Bye" to a year which I would mostly remember for painful memories than good memories.

Losses - the elderly in the family, though close, that's still easy to deal with; but when one of your friend in your age group leaves you, you don't know what to say! Then the untimely deaths of grown up children of friends and extended family, I just didn't know what to tell them! And there were two such incidents this year! Perhaps even painful was the death of friendship, where the friends are there but we will never ever cherish the good times that we had again! Then, the cracks in relationship within the family, that will be perhaps be sealed, but will never have the same strength!

Maybe should just say "Good Riddance" and look forward to a brand new year!
