Saying goodbye

We meet a lot of people in our lives. They come, they go and others stay. Or they might resurface and rekindle the relationship once more. I have experienced a lot of goodbyes and witnessed some. And the most painful is the one which ended in silence. You slowly drifted apart or the other person no longer need you and doesn't want to stay.

It wasn't that easy to let go because the attachement was there. Throwing away and forgetting the good times together is not that simple because in a way the person has given me some kind of gift. A gift of love and friendship. I have learned from them. I have laughed and enjoyed many moments. So as with everything in life, it has to end.

So, what to do with something become stale and the person no longer there? Accept it.
Move on. Get used to the the fact that it's a part of life and become the very best you can be. Don't bad-mouth them instead be quiet and be grateful of that gift you once have. It will hurt and one may feel the absence but  in the long run you'll get used to it, then something or someone will eventually come.

So I say "Cheers and so long!"

Another gift...Another reason to celebrate life.

Just be thankful to those who say goodbyes and pray for those who say illness towards you.....

Such a bittersweet moment, but I'm glad you were able to feel grateful for the times you had and not angry over their end. That's a difficult state of mind to reach sometimes, but such a wise way to live.

Our mid-week get away in Dijon

Dijon, one of the cities in France, was the destination of our mid-week get away. The city,which is well known for its mustard,is a 3-hour train ride from Genève via Lausanne. As I've mentioned in my previous post ,this was my first time to visit the city. We arrived mid-day to a gloomy surrounding and headed to Quick, sort of Jollibee here. Yet,the real treat was in the old town. Walking on the paved street for me was like being transported to another era. Aside from Musée des Beaux-Arts Dijon, we were able to visit Cathédrale de Saint Bénigne and the Notre Dame de Dijon. However,due to time constraint we were not able to visit other places. Our evening meal was in Le Théâtre des Sens, a small but cozy restaurant and where I've tried escargot. Yes, I did and blame it on the kir! Our dinner was really good,the waiter was very cheery and accomodating. We stayed at the Hotel Des Ducs where we spent the rest of the night watching crime scene investigation. Ah! the joy of havin
