Letting Go

Anyone who has gone through the agony of losing someone he/she loves so much will still wish, against all odds to have that love back again. But sometimes a love lost is a love gone forever. No amount of hope can bring back to life a relationship that just died a natural death. So just set yourself free, let your heart spread its wing and fly. Remember, it may rain for 40 days and 40 nights, but still it will not rain forever. One day the pouring will stop and there will be plenty of branches where you can build your nest and start over again, It’s never too late. You may find love and lose it but, when love dies you never die with it. You cannot be a redeemer all your life. The best way to weight a relationship is through the test of fire. You cannot bear sober with your mistake forever. We all fall and make wrong decisions but our blunders are not meant to bury us deep in misery but to teach us the valued lesson of life. Loving is always a learning process. With love we learn how to care and sacrifice…we learn to share and reach out..we learn to be unselfish and give more than we can. Then, when everything doesn’t end well..we learn how it feels to fall and get hurt. But learning doesn’t have to end there. After our fall, we strive to get back on our feet and move on.

 This is were we learn that life doesn’t end where our heartaches begin. There’s no future for relationship of lies and selfishness. It’s true, there is life in love, but, there can still be life even after losing it, just move on, leave the past behind, let your heart heal and give chance to find yourself again. 

The success of a relationship lies not only in the beauty of its beginning but in its consistency. Make a choice not on impulse but a decision based on a healthy balance of mind and heart. Let us always remember that happiness is not a matter of destiny but a matter of choice. There comes a time in our lives when we wish upon someone so nice and beautiful and we just find ourselves getting intensely attracted to that person. This feeling soon becomes a part of our everyday life and eventually consumes our thoughts and actions. The sad part of it is when we begin to realize that this person feels nothing more for us than friendship. We start our desperate attempt to get notice and be closer but in the end our efforts are still unrewarded and we end up being sorry for ourselves. You don’t have to go to someone you love, what you need to learn is how to accept the verdict of reality without being bitter or sorry for yourself. You would be better off giving that dedication and move to someone more deserving.

Don’t let your heart ruin your life, be sensible and let you mind speak for itself. Listen not only to your feelings but to reason as well. Always remember that if you lose someone today, it means that someone better is coming tomorrow. If you lose love, it doesn’t mean that you have failed in love. Cry if you have to, but make sure that tears wash away the hurt and the bitterness of the past. Let go of yesterday and love will finds its way back to you, and when it does, pray that it may be the love that will stay and last a lifetime. But be careful, a man/woman on the rebound could easily fall for sweeping emotion and be made to falsely believed that he/she finally stumbled upon the right man/woman, when what he/she just found is only someone to cover up for the love he/she has lost, think hard, decide with your mind and not just with your heart. Remember, a man/woman who makes a promise with words and not with actions may never live up to fulfill them, because actions speaks louder than words, always!

Tip: Challenge yourself everyday, in the morning face the mirror with enough confidence and utter this: “When I lost you, I was the one who love you most, but between us you lost more, for someday I can love someone the way that I loved you, but you will never be loved again the way that i did!”
