Are you brave enough to say goodbye?

Are you brave enough to say goodbye??

Do you like the feeling of seeing someone leave? Maybe the answer is NO. Goodbye always makes our throat hurt. Any loss in our life causes heartache.?

What if I told you that even when you appear to be losing someone in life, you are winning? That is correct. And I'm not just telling you some nonsense.

You are a winner. You've been scoring goals like crazy, cruising to an unbeaten record. Let me clarify this.?

Consider the following scenario:?

You've spent your entire life looking for love, the one special person with whom to share your life. But it hasn't happened to this point.?

You've met people and had relationships, but none of them have lasted "forever." You and "the one" never came together. The story had to come to an end at some point, and it was usually a pretty typical kind of ending.

You’ve noticed the friends you trust most, loving someone else and trying to get you down. You begin to lose hope after a while. You begin to doubt your proficiency to meet the person of your dreams to whom you can share everything. Then the questions arise in your mind,?

“Will anyone ever be my best friend?”

“Am I worthy of being loved by someone?”

“Why do I always seem to attract the same types of people?”?

You recall periods in your childhood or school life when you didn't feel loved enough or didn't have any formal friendship.?

Then you meet someone one day. After a few dates, you realize how much you love each other's company. As the days become weeks, and the weeks into months, everything is progressing beautifully.

Eventually, that day comes when you can’t help yourselves – you feel a deep attraction to them.?

You start to wonder, “Could they be ‘the one?!” Could this be it? Wheeeeee!!! The bliss, excitement, and possibility are invigorating and enlivening.

After a few months, you get disturbed if you don't talk to them. After a few years, you get depressed when they ignore you. But sometimes they act like you are very special to them and sometimes they act like a stranger to you.?

Is this a sign of a toxic relationship? At some point however the dark clouds of doubt start rolling in, it starts in small ways that grow first slowly and then all at once until the storm finally breaks loose. No matter what kind of relation it is when the chemistry slowly evaporates the smallest things turn to arguments. You can not feel that excitement as ago. You can’t believe someone can fake their love and care to just enter somebody’s life.

Though you are trying to hold everything so tightly, you realize it's not working at some point - possibly you hit a breaking point and want to get out of those nasty feelings. At this point, no amount of time can make them feel better about you!?

Maybe it just fades gradually until you decide to turn it off. Maybe it just slowly dies until you eventually decide to pull the plug.?

Either way, you eventually go your separate ways by saying GOODBYE, GOODBYE, GOODBYE! Get out of your head and stop the coiling of toxic thoughts.?

Oh well. You’re hurt, crushed but somehow resolute that eventually, things will turn out for you. Except they did. Even though it may look and feel like a loss, this was a glorious, resounding win.?

It is not generally what our hearts, minds, and souls tell us to do, but sometimes, it is the most necessary thing to do; for not only your wellbeing but the wellbeing of the other person.?

A victory from God. HURRAH!

Hello for the first time and goodbye for the last time are the two most difficult things to say in our life. But are you brave enough to say goodbye at any stage of your life??

Did this strike a chord with you????
