This is upsetting when you like a person you lose him/her. I have colleague cum friend. Basically he is a subordinate and learned everything from me at work and we have a good bonding in last 2 years and have been friends more then a boss or subordinate relation. Everything was moving fine till today when top management asked him to go to Thailand as they need a person there. He agreed as he is in need of money and he will get better salary there but I have a mixed feeling as I am happy that he will grow better and it's indirectly me who's appreciated by the management as he learned everything from me but one bitter fact is I am hurt as I have lost one of my best friend. I don't know how I may be able to fill that void which he will leave when he will go away from my life as I know once a person go far the relationship also gets affected.

I do not agree with 'change is permanent'. Had the change been permanent no one would have put their efforts to make it right. In fact change is one thing very much changeable.
No doubt people resist for changes and put their efforts to make things like they want to be but there are still few changes for which we can't do anything but to accept them as it is and try to adapt ourselves with them. And I am not different as I know I can't resist it so I have to accept it.
Do whatever you like, acceptance or resistance, but there shouldn't be regrets, because, you accepted it. Life should go on.
I find it amusing when people say someone has not changed at all...of course they say it as a compliment, but looking at it from a different angle - how boring would that be if the person does the same thing day after day...Unless we have something new to look forward life would be uninteresting..
Some of the changes, I ensure to implement in my life are, a change of my route during my morning walk. I avoid walking in the same route everyday. Similarly, I change my mode of painting often. I try different modes like painting with thumb. On lonely roads I walk in reverse way. These changes refresh me and fill me with new energy.

To cheer you up, me and a bunch of my close friends in college recently got together after 20 long years and we felt the same connection. We are now enjoying our friendship now even more than we did back then!
Very true Kalyani ! In my own case Facebook has really helped me find a few of my old friends who I had completely lost touch with...We have all changed but the old bond keeps us together and we also do not take each other for granted now !
Yes Usha. Facebook has helped many of my old friends also to reconnect so has whatsapp. We have all grown and matured now and life has provided quite a different perspective of looking at things that helped us treat each other with more respect and consideration.

Yes akp small tours really make mind fresh. I always do that when I get too much of stress in life.
Life is all about energies. Energy is what it is inside universe. It does not increase or decrease. That is why one would need to find ways to tranfer energy into different dynamic movements so that it keeps on continuing. Regular exercise would be great help to clean up all stable elements inside nerve paths.
