Absence

Just as the presence of someone in our lives can bring great change and significance, so also their absence can cause a unique transformation in us.

Let’s think of the people who’ve played an important role in our lives. Their friendships, their advice and the laughter shared are difficult to erase.But in their very absence, those memories shine brighter and seem to be etched in our hearts forever.

So, this is the question I pose. What is better, their presence or their absence? I have noticed that people and friends are better appreciated in their absence than in their presence. In their presence, we are unable to fathom their influence, how their lives intertwine with ours.

When distance makes its way in between those blessed friendships and relationships, realization dawns on the truth of how compelling their presence really was!
