LETTING GO…

Letting go is never easy.
Of course distance cannot kill
relationships…but it can dampen
the spirit… and fuel the desire for togetherness.
Communication channels are many
But they cant replace your presence.
And what about
the beautiful times,
the addictive conversations,
the angry pauses, the understanding silence,
mean attempts to provoke, sweet attempts to evoke laughter.
And the smile, crinkling eyes, resonating laughter.

Life’s a spoil-sport,
throwing unbearable, inevitable situations
There’s an upside to everything…we call it experience-
that makes us strong and all that.
Letting go is still tough.

Imagine life without dear one,
ferried away to distant lands..
Of course with the promise of return.
But 24 months !!
And then there are so many “what if’s” and “maybe s”
cruelly hurled at 190km/h.
There’s so much to say, to hear, to know,
to understand, to experience, to be.

Breaking away…
Understanding life…
Living alone…
Letting go…
Is never easy.

hi sheetal,
letting go of something we treasure is tough. so it reflects everybody's reluctance to let go.
