Many people have great difficulty in saying goodbye. But from goodbye moments, we can always learn something.

Once, I overheard (無意中聽到) a father and daughter in their goodbye moment. The father said, “I love you, I wish you enough.” The daughter answered, “Daddy, our life together has been more than enough. Your lover is all that I need. I wish you enough, too, Daddy.”

They kissed and she left …

The father walked over towards me. I could see he wanted and needed a cry. He came over to me and asked, “Did you ever say a forever goodbye to someone?” Before I could answer, he went on, “ I am old and she lives much too far away. I know her next trip back would be for my funeral (葬禮).”

“When you were saying goodbye I heard you say, ‘I wish you enough.’ May I ask what that means?”

He began to smile , “It’s a wish that has come down from my great-great-grandparents. And my parents used to say it to me.”

He stopped for a moment and looked up as if trying to remember it. He smiled even more.

“When we said‘I wish you enough,’ we were wanting the other person to have a life full of enough good things.”

Then, turning towards me, he shared (分享) the following “wish” from his heart.

I wish you enough sun to keep you bright .

I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more.

I wish you enough happiness to keep you alive.

I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger.

I wish enough hellos to get you through the final goodbye.

My friends, I wish you enough.
