Simplified Meaning:
When we say goodbye to someone we love, it feels incredibly painful because it reminds us both of the good and bad in life. Imagine a friend moving far away. The sadness and loss you feel are like a tiny taste of the hardship people think of as hell. But at the same time, remembering the happy times you had with them is like a glimpse of heaven’s joy. These moments of separation make us appreciate the good times more and show us how tough life can be. Knowing this can help us cherish the people in our lives and make the most of our time with them, understanding that goodbyes are a natural part of our journey.
