It is always sad when someone leaves. A good example is when you go on vacation to visit relatives and friends. It's an emotional roller coaster ride that you are always so happy to see them but sad to leave. I feel the same when my kids come home and then they leave to go back to school. It is a ride where they comfort you when they are home and makes you worry when they are away.
How I cope up with the sadness is by calling or texting them. Thank God for the technology today. I know that the eldest daughters are always happy to leave home because they seek their independence, I understand that. Is this a temporary feeling? I don't know exactly if they feel the sadness of leaving. It's just hard to say our "goodbyes" even if I know I will be talking to them later on. Even if I try to hide my feelings, my eyes get teary.
I feel the comfort and security when I pray to God to watch them for me. I never stop asking for God's help for the safety of my family. I couldn't ask for anything more. I am truly blessed my eldest daughters are my pride and joy (and of course the little ones, too).
So today is a sad day, although I know they will be back home before Christmas. I worry about them too much. I pray to God to give me strength everyday and be with us always for all the challenges that we have to face.
