The Train Station Theory

“Life is a train station.
People get on. People get off.
Some ride with you for a stop.
Others, a few stations.
A rare few, the whole journey.
Don’t grip too tight. Don’t beg them to stay.
Their stop might not be yours. And that’s okay.
Because every goodbye makes room on the bench.
For someone who’s meant to ride further.”

 

The older I get, the more I understand that not everyone is meant to stay for the whole ride. But the journey is still beautiful, even with the stops along the way.

From my canvas to yours,
Kelsey
