Farewell is a bittersweet moment in life, and is the time when we must say goodbye to those we love, whether it be for a short period of time or forever and can be difficult, as they are often filled with emotions such as sadness and regret. However, they can also be uplifting and provide us with hope for the future. They remind us that even though our paths may diverge, our relationships will remain strong and our memories will last forever, and are an important part of life that allow us to appreciate what we have now and look forward to what lies ahead.
