the moment you stop being a person who's here and start being a story.
means A departure is the act of leaving a place, or a shift away from an established way of doing or thinking.
from From Old French 'departir,' to divide or separate — built from Latin 'dis-' (apart) and 'partire' (to part, to share out), the same 'part' that splits a whole into pieces. So at its root, to depart is literally to part: to break off your piece and carry it elsewhere. The travel sense — leaving on a journey — grew out of that older meaning of simply going one's separate way.
