Remember the part at the end of The Wizard of Oz where Dorothy has to say goodbye to the Tin Man, the Cowardly Lion, and the Scarecrow?
Dorothy: [to Scarecrow] I think I’m going to miss you most of all.
That’s how I feel right now, saying goodbye to dear friends. Unfortunately for me, those same friends won’t magically reappear when I wake up from this dream and return to Kansas.
My version of Scarecrow is probably one of the smartest people I know so he’d have never had to seek out the Wizard for brains. But like Dorothy, I think I’ll miss him most of all.
I’m not good with goodbyes.
Thanks for being my mentor, for always believing in me, and for making me believe in myself.
(You know who you are.)
This is going to be a difficult last few weeks…

Aw, good luck with your goodbyes and your transition! I can’t imagine how hard it is… I hate goodbyes too.

I hope everything goes well – goodbyes are the hardest if the person is special, so I feel your sadness :(

For years after I saw this movie, I thought about this scene. I think knowing who your Scarecrow is — that’s important. I’m sorry you have so many hard good-byes to say.
