Who does not want a person in life who is part of you!! Who listens, understands does not judge, gives warmth, a shoulder to cry, a person who is not less than a part of you. And who wants this person to lose? Mostly favorite hi is the hardest goodbye. Carrying the weight of losing a part of you is the heaviest.
Having a favorite person in our lives can bring us immense joy and warmth. Whether it’s a family member, friend, or romantic partner, their presence often lights up our days. But have you ever heard about the idea of “detachment“? People often describe it as a healthier theory of maintaining a relationship. I describe it as an idea of letting yourself to the deepest corner of depression. How do you describe it? Is it a good or not be possible thing for you?
Life is a journey, and along the way, we meet people who become more than just friends – they become an important part of our story. But what happens when the winds of change blow and that friend starts to drift away, even though they’re still very much alive?
Imagine sharing laughter, secrets, and countless memories with a friend who seemed inseparable from your life. You both understood each other like no one else could. But as time went on, things began to shift. Maybe they moved to a new place, got busy with work or studies, or just started hanging out with different people. Suddenly, that close connection you once shared started to fade.
Imagine losing the scent a person has left on your soul, losing an emotion of feeling home in them, imagine losing the expectation that that person will stand behind you in the hardest path of your life, imagine losing yourself!!
It’s natural for your heart to feel a mix of emotions. Sadness, because someone who was once an integral part of your everyday life now feels distant. Confusion, as you wonder what went wrong or why things changed. Maybe a touch of nostalgia, reminiscing about the adventures you had and the inside jokes only you two understood.
Losing a friend who is still alive can leave you with unanswered questions. You might find yourself pondering, “Did I do something wrong?” or “Could I have done something differently?” It’s okay to seek answers, but sometimes, life simply takes us on separate paths, and it’s not always about blame. And whom to blame, timings, situations, understandings, the secrets, or to yourself???
In the process of re-finding them, you often lose yourself!
Amid the swirling sea of emotions, you can find solace in the memories you shared. The movie nights, the long walks, the late-night talks – they remain treasures no one can take away. Remember, just because a friend isn’t as present in your life now doesn’t negate the significance of the moments you once lived together.
Losing a friend who is alive is a unique kind of heartache. It’s like watching a chapter close while the book remains open. It’s okay to feel the sadness, the confusion, and even the hope for reconnection. Remember, your story is made up of many chapters, and each one adds to the tapestry of your life. So, embrace the journey, cherish the memories, and keep your heart open to the new friendships that await you. Maybe they are on the way to you, or if not, maybe someone better than them.
Writing this blog in hope of finding those people back in life knowingly they are not going to read this or if read, will read without any feelings.
