"It's easy to form an attachment to people and things. When you've formed an attachment to people and things, it can be a very painful experience and feeling when you realized that it's time to let go. Even the mere thought of not having that person or thing in your life just squeezes your heart in pain.
However, there are times where you or that person has changed to the extent that it's necessary to let go of the relationship or friendship, so that each of you can fulfill your life path."
Ivy, our little sister sent me this message. It's her way of expressing her emotion of our impending "break-up". Letting go is a hard notion for her to consider and I think a lot of us has this. But because I have been to many distant relationships e.g family, baobao, friends, I can easily handle it, i think.
I know being attached has its perks but it also can prove to be painful once something or someone breaks it apart. But with relationships, you can be attached eventhough you are far away from each other. With technology now, distance wont be a hindrance in building and improving relationships. It might be different from seeing each other, talking, chatting, or just being behind each other but you can still do all these things through the internet. Just remember, that distance wont hinder relationships to work out, change wont be enough to let go of relationships and true friendship surpasses anything even distance.
