Leaving

Since several days ago got the news from my landlord that the house wouldn't be available for leasing soon, I began to prepare to leave.

There are about double dozens days left for me to live in this room, and continually I begin to notice how good my room is, how nice I have put each thing in place.

Yes, I have truly put effort in the gathering thing, cleaning house; make changes of the furniture in order to work more conveniently. And noticing each such small detail would makes me feel a little proud of myself, and moreover, a feeling not want to leave.

Must be many people have experienced this feeling, hard to leave a place where you have put emotion, effort, and memory inside. But no way else, time comes, time for leaving, whatever how hard to leave.

And look at what the archaeological findings, those deserted houses, ruined cities, deliberate relics, all were made by effort. Even we can still feel there are breaths of the ancient dwellers, and feel their soul on those remains. They must also love their place so much, and put their heart inside, to work, to improve, to have a better life in each passing day.

While there is also a leaving time waiting for them, sometimes is war, or some disaster force, and most time, is death.

They left quietly, do they realize at that leaving moment that, when time comes nothing could be taken with? All those things that they have beloved, cared most, would have to be left behind, and been forgotten behind. Do they realize?

What would they response?

To feel empty?

Maybe yes, but still have some something worth.

What? what that is?

They are:

The time they have spent in the handmade cozy place; the feeling of achievement when they made the thing different; all the moment they have enjoyed there with the substances.

All these would accompany their souls, make them feel comfortable, confident, and joyful, accompany them until they arrive next safe place, and to begin to build a new journey.

From this point, life, which full of leaving, is actually not a bad thing.
