The Train : Memories a life cycle

At birth, we get on the train and meet our parents.

And we believe they will always travel with us.
Yet at a station our parents will get off the train,
leaving us alone to continue the journey…
As time goes by,
other people ride the train.

And they will be important: our sibling, friends, children,
even the love of our life.
Many will resign (even the love of our lives)
and will leave a gap more or less big.
Others will be so low key
that we won’t realize they left their seats.
This train journey will be full of joys, sorrows, expectations,
Goodbye, goodbye and goodbye.
Success is having a good relationship with all passengers
as long as we give our best self.
We don’t know which station we’ll get down to.
So let’s live happily, love and forgive!
It’s important to do this because when we get off the train,
we should only leave beautiful memories for those who continue their journey…
Let’s be happy with what we have and thank heaven for this fantastic journey.
Also, thank you for being one of my train passengers.
And if I have to get down to the next station,
I’m glad I came a long way with you!
I want to tell every single person who will read this text that I thank you for being in my life and traveling on my train. ′′
