In the face of any relationship, any emotional connection, whether it is with the land, with the environment, with people or with the inevitable end of life, there will inevitably be some struggles, a reluctance, a contradiction and a wave of pain of missing.
However, if we look at this so-called "end" in a larger universe and time and space, life does not end, but exists in a different way. Like the four seasons of the earth. In winter, the earth freezes and plants die, just a long sleep, because after winter, it is the time when branches and leaves sprout and the earth recovers.
Just like getting old, it seems that all body functions are declining and moving towards the end; But the inheritance of life wisdom and the continuation of future generations' lives all started from this important moment. If a baby is born, let us see that the new life is such a pleasant miracle and precious gift; Did this elder let us see this kind of life and do it? How many treasures can people hold, and their understanding of the world, everything and life. This inexhaustible treasure is the life force that the elderly can present.
Even teachers, whose lives we thought were over, tell us with their bodies that even if the heart has stopped beating and breathing has stopped, the love for human beings and the younger generation, the care for patients in the same boat and the desire for medical progress can be passed on through this body. At this time, the end of a person's life may also be the beginning of an understanding and respect for the mystery of life.
Farewell to life, perhaps, is just a change in life learning. When we say goodbye to the boat carrying our beloved sadly, we can also try to keep a picture in our hearts: many people lined up on the other side to welcome the boat carrying our beloved back. Just like the coastline that separates the ocean from the coast, although it is the dividing line, it can also be said to be the connecting line between the ocean and the coast. In other words, death is just going home and returning to the original beginning. Go back to the place where there is no pain, no disease and no tears.
However, when this time and space are changing and the way of existence is about to change, when we are about to be unable to meet, hug or complain about our feelings, let us learn to cherish the time we are together now, say love loudly, hug hard, thank you, sincerely apologize and forgive, and bid farewell to good ways.
After we cried and were inseparable, let's recall the good memories we once walked together. That rich life became such a beautiful life because of each other. Then, we stopped here to wave goodbye. I believe my lover just went to that beautiful place first. We hope we will meet again in the near future! Now, we will continue to live our beloved love and life in this world!
