'bye

I had to say goodbye.
It took me a while to realize that letting go is the price of temporary freedom.
I've weighed my options and looked at the alternatives.
The most compelling reason, though, is nothing practical - at my darkest moment, I resented it; but in good times I loved it.
What kind of relationship is that?
So I had to let go...even if it means I won't be taking photos anytime soon.

'bye, alpha.
