We board this train when we are born, and our parents are the ones that get us our ticket. We thought that they will always travel on this train with us, accompanying us for every station. And sometimes, we even neglect their presence. But we are wrong. At some station, our parents will get off the train, leaving us alone on this journey. We will not be used to their absence at first, and that's why some of us choose to get off at the next station where our parents got off.
As time goes by, other passengers will board the train, many of whom will be significant-our siblings, friends, children and even the love of our life. Many will get off during the journey and leave a permanent vacuum in our lives making us feel empty and lost. We might not get use to their absence but the journey still goes on. Many will go so unnoticed that we won't even know when they entered or vacated their seats and got off the train.
This train ride will be full of joy, sorrow, fantasy, expectations, hellos, good-byes and farewells. It is bustling and crowded at some stations, and empty and quiet at some stations. It even gets bumpy at times.
A good journey is helping, loving and having a good relationship with all co-passengers. A bad journey is fighting with co-passengers and always thinking about the previous station, not being able to move on. Some prefer to ride alone throughout the whole journey, while others prefer to ride with their friends by their side. It's up to you to enjoy the ride or to have an unpleasant ride.
We will not know which station is our last, so enjoy the ride while you can and make the most out of it.
" The truth is you don't know what is going to happen tomorrow. Life is a crazy ride, and nothing is guarenteed. "
