Nothing last forever, and there are times when we all must say goodbye. For the past few months I have to say goodbye for so many people that I love. I begin to question "why do we have to do it?". And as we're getting older, we all know that at some point we are all gonna have to face an end to something. Whether it's a death or other separation. But when the time has come, how do we know if we're gonna be ready? And if we're ready, what's the point of having all these memories?
I wonder, I've had to say these goodbyes more times than I may have like, but everyone can say that. Literally. But no matter how many times we have to do it. It still stings and hurts you. Especially death, watching people you love passed away is not something you are looking for. But what can we say? I've watched one of my closest friend lost her Dad. She was so closed with him and I know it. It happened during Ied Adha. I have to saw her got destroyed by her loss. My friends were all there quietly. There was only tears. Me? I was there, early morning. Couldn't do anything but hug her. And also hoping that this tragedy won't happen again to all of us. But unfortunately it did. I lost my lovely Grandma, she passed away in Dec 2015.
Is this the only goodbye? Ultimately maybe. But we have also must say goodbye to those who we love deeply but under so many circumstances, couldn't be together anymore. Wise-man says "it's for the greater good". What are these goodbyes? It might be for the people we used to be in relationship with or maybe for a friend who you realize later that he/she was just no good for you. And you have to let them go.
So which one hurts you the most? The ultimate goodbye or the temporary one? Whichever the answer is, I think we all owe it to ourselves to keep moving forward, we might never forget what we've given up, but what we can't do is live our lives afraid of the next goodbye, because chances are they are not going to stop.
Just remember this: the trick is to recognize when a "goodbye" can be a good thing. It's a chance to start again. It's a chance to cherish all the things while you have it. And it's a chance to love your family and friends even more. Because sometimes when you see people everyday, you forget to tell them how much they mean to you.
There's so much more to say and I could go on all day talking about this. But I guess, that's it for now. Bye!
