That evening, he and she sat quietly, realizing that their relationship was coming to a close. They had never made a commitment to live together for the rest of their lives or promised anything beyond marriage. They chose to live in the present moment.
They were aware that they would part ways in the next 15 to 20 days, but they didn't feel sad. Nothing in this world is permanent. We all know that we will be born and will pass away in the next 60 to 70 years, but that shouldn't stop us from experiencing the joy of life. This is how their love story would end - not with a tragic ending, but by mutual agreement. Despite this, their love for each other continued to grow. They loved each other deeply, their connection was strong and meaningful. He had no control over who she talked to or what she did, and vice versa. They had a sense of freedom in their relationship. However, this too would come to an end.
No one can hold a special place in another person's life forever. Some may promise to stay together for life, but it's not always the case. People may change their feelings and move on. No matter how wonderful the partner may be, someone else may come along and attract them. This is natural and there's nothing wrong with it. Life is finite, and that includes love.
We often come across the idea of being loyal in relationships, but that notion is a sign of a weak relationship. Commitment is a form of agreement, but it's only necessary when trust is lacking.
In some religious texts or books, we may have learned that the physical world is fleeting. But this truth is often misconstrued. The fact that it's perishable means it will eventually come to an end, so we shouldn't let it slip away. Like a river that meets the sea, it will cease to exist, but it will flow as long as it can. A stagnant spring may lose its independent existence as it falls onto rocks, but it continues to flow.
The joy of life is in its impermanence. All the wonderful people we have in our lives today will one day leave us, but that's what makes life so precious. We enjoy traveling because we know it will eventually come to an end. The same goes for life.
Every day, remind yourself that we will all die one day. This is the most fundamental truth of life. By accepting this fact, you will find true happiness and won't get caught up in unimportant things. You will always seek happiness and enjoy life because you know it's limited.
We love our parents, siblings, close friends, and relatives deeply because they will eventually pass away. If they didn't, we would take them for granted and our life would become boring.
Love stories that remain unfinished, that end prematurely, are truly alive. They become immortal because the meaning of life is to end
