Departure is never easy

Everyone will have to go through some changes in their life.
Typically human beings are against changes.
Asking them to get out of their comfort zone is difficult.
It is never easy.

I have spent my life in such comfort since i was a baby.
By my grandparents, parents, aunts and siblings, never was the love and care compromised.
Yes, there were times when things were testing and difficult.
Despite of such, all were good times.

Always remember this
Bad times are meant to put you through difficulties so that you can be a better person, in terms of thinking, personality and etc.
Without bad times, you will never improve.

Good times are meant for remembrance.
Also, if you are "wounded" during the bad times, it is during such times, then you get to heal yourself amongst the presence of your loved ones e.g. your parents, siblings etc.

Now that I have to proceed onto my next journey, there are people that I need to leave behind for a while.
My dear siblings, as the title of the blog reads, "A bond that must be cherished"... you must understand the meaning.

I was happy to see tears earlier as it shows the importance of my being.
Yet at the same time, I am sad that there is this short period of separation.

In the meantime, dear brothers and sisters, please take care of yourself and each other.
Also, fulfill your duties as children and GRANDCHILDEN (no matter how naggy, unreasonble or loud in her words, she is this your granny in this lifetime. Avoidance is not the answer.)

Keep me in the loop of the recent happenings with interesting photos.
Till then...
