Loss an unending Pain
In class six, a friend lost her favorite fountain pen it was expensive also worked like butter. Fountain pens were big name back then! We looked for it everywhere in class, even in washroom and after looking into every nook and corner where she could have dropped it. We knew that it was taken by someone. Naturally, the next thing was to inform our teacher after lunch. To ask the whole class if anybody took it or saw anybody take it. Our teacher suggested that whoever took it should return or keep it in the drawer by next day.
Next morning the pen was not there it was lost forever we knew. My friend was terribly upset for losing something so important. I didn't know what to do so a friend came up a idea, "Why don't we just contribute 10 rupees each and buy her the same pen?" Awesome idea! No?
So, two days later we bought a new fountain pen, the same kind she had before and surprised her. She was so happy and thankful about it. The next day she bought extra pasta for all of us to share( Her mum made best pasta!)(◠‿◕)!
Last year, a friend lost her sister in an accident when she called me to talk about this it broke me. I couldn't do anything about it, her sister was no more. Neither I could ask anyone else to look for her nor I could replace her. She was gone. My friend was hurt and kept on crying on the call I was far away from her in a different state, I couldn't embrace her or say a word that would soothe her pain. I cried an hour after we kept the phone down. I didn't have heart to tell her that it would be alright because I knew it would never be. When you loose someone they are gone and there's no way this loss can be compensated. You are just left with memories and pain with emptiness of the gone person. No-one can do or say anything which would take that pain away. It stays with you forever.
There are things we can never change they are just out of our control. I learnt this the hard way and I know that all of you out there hurting with the loss would understand this. It would hurt, it will always hurt! But please know that it's alright to be hurt and you don't have to act like it's fine since it happened a long ago.
No-one can take your right to be hurt just know the loss needs to be understood accepted and go on with life!
Love Rewa
Hope you feel better!🌻
