People will tend to hurt you, leaving you scarred. They will leave you with no reason at all, and you would wind up wondering why. Life is filled with bittersweet things, life itself is bittersweet. Absence is the bitter part of life. Don't you think the word "absence" sounds so powerful? I find it chaotic but somewhat beautiful at the same time. It's what causes grief yet it teaches us a lesson.
A person being absent in your life will allow you to be more independent in life, life still has to move on and you would eventually learn to grow without them. You're able to explore new things, new interests, or your hidden talents. Sometimes, it may be hard for us to accept the fact that they're no longer there and we're all alone. This is because we have been so used to their presence, them being here for us through everything and anything. Now that they're gone, we would feel clueless and empty. Now, that is why absence is extremely potent, it could affect someone's life so powerfully. But after all, absence and presence are what completes life.
Absence can be threatening to some people, it could end a life or lead to depression. It is a sensitive topic to talk about but in reality, everyone is going to experience it one way or another. An example would be losing a loved one. Grief is caused by a loved and special someone's absence, this is a painful process. The pain the others would have to endure could take them up wholly. They would overthink and blame themselves for what had happened, then this would lead them to take their own life. I find this daunting. The absence of an individual can be so capable of destroying someone just like that. Losing a friendship goes the same. In my opinion, friendship breakups are the worst! I think that it's even worse than a relationship breakup. Your friend's absence could really drive you crazy. Been there, done that. You wouldn't know who to confide to or talk to about your day or what crazy thing just recently happened in your life. You're really left with no one and that is challenging.
As I mentioned before, absence is a bitter part of life but the bitter parts in life are often the most beautiful things in life if only you take time to understand it, every single detail of it. "Your absence taught me how to live without you, time away taught me to find peace in being alone." -R.H. Sin. Although absence can be traumatic, tragic, cruel, and cold, you would end up adapting to it though it takes time. It would offer you temporary suffering but you will end up acquiring something beautiful from your solitude.
