去さる者ものは追おわず、来きたる者ものは拒こばまず

expression

don't chase those who leave, don't reject those who come

A proverb advising acceptance of people's comings and goings without clinging or shutting others out. Often used to express a magnanimous or detached attitude toward relationships.

• 去さる者ものは追おわず、来きたる者ものは拒こばまずの精せい神しんで、新あたらしい出で会あいを大たい切せつにしている。

  With the spirit of 'don't chase those who leave, don't reject those who come,' I cherish new encounters.
