every person we encounter has entered our lives for a very unique and specific purpose
and when that purpose is fulfilled, the person must exit our life
sometimes nature and circumstance take care of making that happen for us
other times, it is solely our duty
and that's when things get tricky
because we don't see our relationships as missions
we see the person and not their purpose
and it's in our nature to get attached to other people
especially when we find that we've enjoyed their company or we recognize having learned from them
we want it to last forever
but it's also nature that nothing does
it's a difficult thing to realize and accept and even more difficult to follow through
sometimes you just have to let things go
including people
no matter how valuable they've been or how appreciative you are of them
when it's time to separate, it will happen, whether you struggle against it or not
lesson: have fun while it lasts.
I appreciate you life, love, and learning
