LOSING SOMEONEWhen you lose someone or someone leaves you in some sort of way you feel very sad. I’m not only talking about boyfriends or girlfriends, but also about close friends, close family members or people who have had some sort of impact on you.
When something like this happens, you’re very hurt. Some people may even think that they can’t live anymore.
Well, if you have read “the bright side” you know that you’re standing in the shadow and you can walk to the sun. You didn’t land in some kind of deep pit.
Always keep in mind that that person may not be here now, but they were a period of time. As they say:”Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.”
When you think about those people, think about how they were a part of your life. Don’t think about how it’s going to be without them.
Always keep in mind too that you don’t have to be physically together to know you love each other. The heart, the mind and soul reach further than all the boundaries in the world. Everybody experienced at least one time that they have a bad feeling about their loved ones and find out that something bad did indeed happen. That aren’t hunches. The word feeling explains it all. Feelings do not work with the mind, they work with the heart. Feelings work in a lot of places in a lot of different ways. When two people have some sort of band, they can somehow feel each other, they know they love each other. The word bond speaks for itself. It’s a certain connection between two people.
Far away or nearby, dead or alive, a bond is a bond and it can’t be broken because of a loss.
You can’t lose someone if you never had them. Losing someone means that someone was a part of your life, but you just had to take different paths. Like someone once said:”Some people come into our loves, stay for a while and leave footprints in our hearts forever.”
It’s not about how long someone was in your life, but about how someone was. It’s not about quantity, but about quality, right?
Just be happy you were able to have had such people in your life. People you won’t forget or forget you.
Be happy you got to be happy. Be thankful, these rare people don’t enter our lives often. Smile because you got to experience it at least once.
You may lose physical concact, but you won’t lose the bond, the memories and the love. And that really counts.
