Why Do Goodbyes Hurt?

I’ve been teaching abroad for many years now but I guess this time it’s gonna be sadder than sad when I’d finally leave. I have been living and working with people who I considered as a third family. My second family is in China, where I also work for two years. I don’t know but even if I’d coax myself not to think of goodbyes still the thought of never seeing them again personally brings me more sadness. Now, even if I haven’t been feeling great since the past three weeks, I always try to feel I’m great so I can see all my kids and friends at school. I need to see them every day as much as I can for I know they are leaving sooner than I think. I wish I can stay here but I also have to consider my longer term goals for me and my family.

So Sad and Nostalgic

I’ve been so down these days it seems that I’ve been really wanting to go home as soon as possible. Been sulking, thinking, and always catch myself with a long vision of something with sometimes find myself not looking at something at all. Totally absent-minded at times. There has reasons for this kind of thing, I said to myself. Not until I opened my YM account after a day’s tough work at school had I known that one of my dear friends and colleague in my previous company where I worked at already passed away just today at noon. I don’t know what to say and do right now because I really want to see her for the last time but here I am again so far away from home as I’m working abroad at this moment. All I can do is keep on wishing and of course thinking and praying for her soul to travel peacefully. I know she understands me. Sighs…
