Saying Goodbye...

"Alvida kehne se phir milne ki ummeed kam ho jaati hai" I love this movie and this dialogue makes me believe that its true to the core. Does saying goodbye lessen the chance of meeting again??

That's not the thing in my mind right now. The question I have today is "Is saying a goodbye necessary at all?"

So many times, I hear instances where two friends have been so inseparable close in college but life took them away to different directions without a chance to meet again.

After the pulwama attack, wives of martyrs saying we had a talk over the phone and he said "I'll come back soon" but then came the news..

A person leaves home for work as usual and is either meets with an accident or death itself and the whole family is only left with questions..

A girl brought up like a darling of the house, is married for a better future and soon kills herself for being tortured mentally and physically without giving the parents even a clue of what she had been through all this while..

We all might have witnessed or experienced the inability to say a happy, memorable goodbye to a our parents, a friend, a companion, or partner..

In all the above situations, the goodbye is more often avoided by nature... Sometimes to keep the good memories alive and sometimes to keep the sad ones at bay.

In my opinion, there is another reason. Our generation is a socially very active and connected. Everyone knows what is going on with someone else's life. So many times I have felt like saying a warm goodbye to once dear friend. I act against the idea because I may not matter to that person anymore..

Also, many occasions are such that a person suddenly tries to know what's happening with you and instantly also wants to bid adieu for life..

That phase of arrival and departure may only add on to the mental chaos. In my opinion the damage already done is more than enough to avoid saying a goodbye.

After all why it should be other person we should care about? It's good to be a little selfish and do what makes your heart happy and leave the other wondering what's on your mind.

So alvida kehne se bhale hi milne ki ummeed kam ho jaati hai, kabhi kabhi bina alvida kahe chale jaana bhi dil ko sukoon de jaata hai...

Cheers!!
God bless!
