Long Endless Summer.....

All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn
The taxi's waitin', he's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could die.....

Lonesome, Lonely, lost,teary eyed,....all that and much more that's nearly what I currently feel. The last few days haven’t been easy biding adieus, final goodbyes, farewell parties, the last minute catching, revisiting old memories. Yes the crazy never ending packing. For a moment or two it did feel like as if, it was I who was leaving and going to some alien land.... But well it wasn't me more like a close circle of friends who are well leaving, some going to different cities, and some leaving the country all together. Some go in search of work, while for few others it’s the academic calling, while for few others its just another traveling spree hoping to connect with their souls and explore a whole new side to their personalities, while for some they have no say as such as they oft migrating literally to different shores. Whatever be the reason the emptyness...The feeling of vacuum always remains the same. Whether its me or my loved ones leaving the pain, the anguish and numb feeling of seeing packed bags...,empty homes, cheerful smiles replaced by moist eyes and choked emotions
goodbyes to all the merry days, non stop chatter, endless summer fun....goodbye!!
will miss you guys a lot ...hopefully all those bittersweet memories shared shall remain ...or well just might be replaced by newer ones, newer people, many more stories, many more lives, million more moments to live and treasure each day good luck to each one of us and literally a new beginning cheers :)) Indeed the summer has come to an end...

Life is a journey. Some travel with us for a while, some for longer, in the end it is just us traveling. Cherish the few moments of togetherness while not falling under any illusion of forever.

Shed your tears, for they are a testament to a friendship, much cherished. Tears of today are a gift from yesterday's laughter and bearers of tomorrow's joys.

Cherish the fact that you feel the pain, imagine the depravity of a bereavement which brings no sorrow.

Well said indeed GO, brilliantly said in fact....hmmmmmm my my philosophy, maturity alll at once so much has changed....indeed changed fr the better :))
abt my supposed "bereavement" well its not like i have shut myself out and still living in a very disillusioned world certainly not...its a journey and what a journey at taht filled with its own shares of priceless moments, memories, mystery...penning those down as remebrance and an ode to a lot of ppl having said that pain &hurt is ineviatble but life doesnt stop at that therefore i clearly stated it is a new beginning for each of us amen to taht:))!!

Hmm!!!It’s very lively and takes me back to the same nostalgic hangover and felt like with all my near and dear ones. The fact remains that the temporal habitation of human existence has always tried to have some meaning to life. The growing up phrases, where new experiences are destined and new worlds to be explored give us chance to be part of a longer journey. The moments are so binding that we never feel of leaving apart after a period of time. The consciousness always chases the potential reality to be with people...u love...Certainly illusioned or disillusioned in the fear of losing them for some time or longer...but have to withstand may be by shedding tears or chocking emotions...to the extent where the realization comes...

“Meeting and Parting are the laws of nature”...the end of one "Long Endless summer...." and...the begining of a new...
