Being Present Over Perfect
On Roses and Goodbyes
By Liz Maratta
Within the last few weeks, I’ve had to say goodbye six times. I have given hugs, best wishes and taken last pictures together with six of my former CAP community members. I got a lump in my throat and an ache in my heart each time.
Obviously, I’m a sensitive person. I got attached. I shouldn’t have. But, then again, if someone has inspired me with love and admiration, I consider myself blessed.
