How Hard is it to Bid Adieu?

Do you agree that nothing and nobody in this life is permanent? Well, no matter how good a thing is and no matter how close a person is, someday or the other, they have to go away and you can blame nobody but your fortune for it. People come to your life or you come to the life of people just to learn and teach some very important lessons and when these lessons are taught or learned, they move away.

But the worst part in all this is the separation part and bidding adieu to some of these people is the hardest thing in the world. Do you agree with this at least? When you are connected with some people, even if there was no blood relationship, even if everything would get back to normal in a few days, that separation thing is really hard and it literally takes a lot of your emotions to say Goodbye to someone who is very dear.

Many goodbyes in life are when people leave for their heavenly abodes and these are extremely tragic. To lose the most loved people in your life in a manner that you would not be able to see them again is something really painful.

However, more painful is losing people and still living with the fact that even when a once very dear person is alive and healthy, he/she has parted his/her ways and is now no longer in contact. This is something that hurts more because you can console yourself on the death of a person because you would not be able to see them again.

However, when the person is alive and yet you part ways, those goodbyes are much more difficult in life.

People part in many ways. Love relationships see breakups, two very close employees in a job part their ways due to new jobs, friends see a breakup when they move to different places due to their studies or jobs and other people in life might have encountered some or the other breakup as well.

However, when we consider this all a part of our life, we are rather happier. Emotional of course, this is something that you would encounter every now and then and as you grow old to this, you get used to it.

But young or old, the human heart is really emotional and goodbyes hurt a lot. And if it is a goodbye from or to someone very close, it is like the heart that has been detached from the human body.

But then, life goes on and time is the best healer of these wounds on the heart.
