How sweet are GOODBYES?

"Never beg people to stay against their will. Sometimes the gift of goodbye opens up another door. All you can do is move on but don't move away."

YES! Sometimes we may see the good side of saying goodbye to the person whom we cherished and loved the most for how many days, months or even years. Saying goodbye doesn't mean that we should forget the person and throw the memories in the garbage of past. Remember that once in your life, that person made you happy and he/she became your ultimate inspiration why you're living life the way you wanted it to be.

Some would probably say goodbye because they wanted to exclude themselves from the so-called forbidden and illegitimate love.  With teary eyes like a flowing stream, they started to divorce themselves to the person whom they shared pure love and happiness with.

Most of us believe that leaving our loved ones is not an easy task. True! It's not as easy as putting a band-aid in your lacerated hands or wounded knees. It's not a joke either. It is a mature decision that we should face and embrace undoubtedly. It hurts but sometimes it brings out the best in us. Eventually, we learned how to be strong and we become a well-mannered individual.

If the person we loved endlessly, bids goodbye to us, we should happily set him/her free. We should be mature enough to think that loving is not owning as what Juris wants us to realize through her song. Love is only a gift given to us, we should not hold in tight in our hands for we may never find the strength to let it go when it decides to leave. This is what a friend of mine told me. Partly true. Don't claim that he/she can be yours forever. There are really times that we should unclasp each others hand and move separate ways.

There are really reasons why they wanted to keep distance from us, that is to weigh things and decide well.

On the other hand, never think that you're not good enough to him/her. Sometimes you should also ask yourself if they are good enough for you. It should be a vice-versa concept and a process. To make things stay in status quo or equilibrium, one should work hand in hand to achieve a harmonious and endless relationship.

Oftentimes, we get tired that's why we chose to say goodbye and end the relationship. No matter how subtle the break-up is. No matter how serious you are in telling him/her the truth, it is still painful. Yes, we have to face it. We can't escape from it. That's the twin of loving, but it pays back if you accepted it wholeheartedly.

There are valid reasons why they wanted to say goodbye to us, and we should respect it fully without any single doubt. Maybe one of the reasons why they wanted to, is that they wanted to search for better options in life. Or, they wanted to be what they wanted to be. I mean, when you see each other again in the cycle you'll be totally proud of him/her. You can say that she/he reach that far. When fate wants you to be with each other someday, then, be it.

Leaving our love partners is also proving him/her that you wanna change for good. Change is inevitable and its prevalent. Maybe, he/she wants to change his/her world that could surely fit yours.

Remember, you are not a beggar, so don't you dare beg for him or her to stay. Move on bur don't move away. Get love and be hurt.

Now tell me, is goodbye as sweet as a child's lollipop? I doubt.

Love Master,
