“The reason it hurts so much to separate is because our souls are connected”
— Nicholas Sparks
Simplified Meaning:
When two people are very close, like best friends or family, they share a deep bond that goes beyond just spending time together. This special connection is like being tied together in a way that you can't see, almost like their hearts and minds are linked. When they have to be apart, it feels painful because they're not just leaving each other's company, they're breaking that invisible tie. Imagine two close friends who tell each other everything and support each other through tough times. If one of them had to move far away, it would feel like a part of them is missing, like losing a piece of themselves. This pain comes from losing that deep, meaningful connection. To cope, people can try to stay in touch through calls or letters, and focus on the positive memories and the hope of meeting again.
