GOODBYE IS THE HARDEST WORD...



I've been here too many times. You'd think 28 years after the first, I'd get used to it. But no. Hell, no. For the nth heartbreaking time, I'm back to being the wailing 5 year old girl who just can't let go.

This morning, after we've dropped off my family at the NAI Airport...

Me: Why am I here again? Why do we have to go through this again? Why do we all have to live so far from each other? Bakit ba? Why? Why? Why... Should I stop asking why?

J: You can't go through life blindly. So no, you cannot stop asking why. You know what you need to do - start accepting your circumstances.


Big sigh.

If goodbye's the hardest word, then acceptance must be the most difficult first step.
