AVIATION

Departure is a friend to independence a friend to bravery yet a foe to bond. As such a bird that will leave its nest in due time, departure also depicts that. Departure tells the story of when the plane takes off. It tells us so much of something similar to what we know as, aviation.

Emotions run wild in the airports, both happy and sad but whatever the reason, it is departure that sits in the cockpit of our emotions. Only then do we realise, family.Like seasons of the world, family comes in different weathers, moods and atmospheres at different times.But regardless of which, the world continues to evolve and family is still family, only closer.

When the young are independent, they go. And when the older must leave, they shall leave but which hurts more? Migration of departure is a dark yet bright aviation. Into a foreign country, we are fearful and for those whose close ones "aviate", we are similarly fearful. But that degree of fear is not tantamount in either of the situations. Departure allows room for hate, yet also for love. Ironically, they are bound together to make us understand. Not understand why they leave but why we have to move on. Aviation of departure teaches us that. Without a doubt.

The mood sets in, always when she is about to check in, or when it dawns on you that you have no clue as to when you'll see his smile again or whether he'll remember you the next time you meet. But ultimately, the mood executes on its own, when the final wave is shown. They say waves tell a story, that a side to side wave resembles a no and that departure means this is not goodbye. Some people say bye tweking and bending their fingers up and down, that resembles a closure and then an opening and that departure means i'll close on you but we'll see each other soon but for now i will start a new phase in life. its degree of truth is highly questionable but nevertheless, when the plane aviates, that is a wave that needs no explanation. But till then, how do you decide when its for the best?

Family departures are the worst to handle. An aviation is analogous to that.

A plane going somewhere aviates at take off, transits here and stops there, but the plane has an airline and an eventual return to the airport of when it started.

Migration of departure leaves for another country, but its identity remains. No matter where it goes, it has a sense of belonging somewhere.

And eventually, they both will come home.

Now that is the aviation, the test of flight that depicts departure.
