Parting to Grow

Every goodbye leads to a wiser path

By Rohitha LankaPublished about a year ago • 1 min read

When the moment arrives, we must take separate paths

To pursue a new journey that surpasses the previous one.

Do not view separation as a sorrowful event,

As parting from the past can sometimes bring joy.

Although it may begin with tears,

Time, combined with challenges and awareness,

Will ultimately lead us to discover deeper truths.

If something is truly beneficial and fitting for us,

We likely wouldn't have had to say goodbye.

Conversely, if we are genuinely suited for that something,

We probably wouldn't have parted ways either.

Every occurrence has its underlying reasons;

Separation allows for personal growth along our paths,

Facilitating the exploration of our vast world.

In this expansive universe,

We inhabit small, distinct realms,

Yet we coexist within the same larger world.

That is the essence of it all.
