i love coaching and hate saying goodbye

I never mentioned the work I am doing in our Venture Capital Fund – Jerusalem Capital, I will do it some day in the future.
I want to talk about me as a coach or batter say what is the most difficult thing in coaching for me..…saying Good bye.
Since coaching is limited by means of number of meetings (usually 12-15 meetings) I found myself saying good bye to three of my trainees in the last two weeks.
I started w/them few months ago and we went through wonderful journey, each one was different, two of them were by phone only and one was face to face. We explored different ways, we touched plenty of good things, we touched few difficult places but with those three we got some interesting insight about their life and discover their lighthouse or vision. It wasn't the same with every one of them but it was magic with each one of them. I know why I love coaching………I love the intimately of being with people with almost no barriers, I love what I learn about myself during the work we do but I hate saying good bye – I might need a coach for me 
I don't know if they read my blog , but here is the time and place to tell you, K. K. and B. ,thank you for being so open with yourself and thank you for giving me the opportunity to escort you for a short time in your journey.
I took two weeks off from new clients but I feel I am ready for my next one………….
