a certain degree of callousness
saying goodbye requires a certain degree of callousness of heart that enables a person to go on to the next part of the journey invariably intact. goodbyes have the tendency to break the heart and wet the eyes as it wells ups with tears of the thought of imminent separation or departure.
yes, a certain degree of callousness is required when you leave the people you love. just enough to dll the pain or to keep one sane from the suffering of breaking apart or being apart.
just how much callous must one envelop his or her heart so that contact will be cherished but removal won't be so searing?
just a certain degree, enough to let go when the time comes to say goodbye.
