In the adult world, there is no farewell with stacked rhetoric, no farewell full of rituals, and some are just a silent turn.
I remember when I was a child, when I was separated from my friends, I would always say, "Next time, we must play together!" ”
At that time, we thought that for every separation, there would be a next reunion, so we didn't have to be sad and didn't have to care.
But as we grew up and goodbyes became the norm, we began to understand that some goodbyes are never seen again.
We learn to hide our emotions and bury all our emotions in the bottom of our hearts. In the face of goodbye, we no longer cry as we did when we were children, and we no longer feel as sentimental as we did when we were young.
We just silently accept and leave in silence.
Perhaps on a quiet night, we will think of those who have been with us and silently pray for their well.
Some people say that the farewell ceremony for adults is a drinking party. After a few glasses of wine, the distance between each other seems to be shortened, but when we wake up, we still have to face the fact of separation.
Some people say that the farewell ceremony for adults is a journey. During the journey, we enjoyed the joy of being together, but when we set out on the way home, we really realized that it was a farewell.
Whether it's a drinking party or a trip, the farewell ceremony for adults is always simple and plain.
We no longer demand, we no longer hold on, because we know that life is like this, there will always be people who will leave, and there will always be people who will come. All we can do is to cherish every minute and every second of the moment, so that goodbye is no longer so painful.
Maybe one day, when we look back, we will find the regret hidden in the 'simplicity'.
It contains too much emotion, too much helplessness. It's like you didn't reply to my message, and I tacitly didn't bother anymore, as if I had never known each other.
