Summary

This quote suggests that every time people say goodbye and part ways with someone, it reminds them of their mortality and the inevitability of death. On the other hand, when people reunite with someone they had been separated from, it serves as a reminder of the hope and possibility of a renewed life or rebirth. In essence, it contemplates the contrasting emotions evoked by both separations and reunions, connecting them to the concepts of mortality and resurrection.
