Have you experienced being left by the person who is important to you? Or have you encountered leaving someone because the situation calls for it? Whichever of the two, the effect would be the same; it will make you sad and lonely. Well, I do not want to call the process as letting go but instead it is moving on for me. Life has its own twists, surprises and changes. And so we should always apply the scout motto, “always ready!” I know it is not that easy because we’ll never know if until when is the person going to be part of our life. But come to think of it, if we know the time of their stay in our life probably we will not be able to enjoy their presence because we always have in mind that they are going to leave us soon. And so, we will not welcome them in our life and we will not share our life to them in order for us to be guarded with our feelings and emotions. What the heck! I would rather enjoy a person’s presence in my life than guard my emotions in order not to be close to them and get hurt when they left. At least, I will be happy and have some memories to treasure with a person. Then, if it’s time for them to leave then, its time also for you to move on but do not let go of the person. That means you are letting him leave you, taking with him everything that the two of you shared together.
It is better to move on and continue life the way it is while keeping in your heart the memories that you shared together. At first, it would be very hard but in due time, you will over come everything. Your life should not stop because of their absence rather it should serve as an inspiration to keep going and prioritizing what was left to you. A person’s absence will even make you a strong person because it will teach you how to overcome the loneliness that you will feel at the same time make you appreciate the importance of the person who are with you. You will learn how to be expensive of your feelings because you will let the person know how much you love and value them.
Moving on… a great challenge that you must face, a battle that you, must win and a process that you must undergo to be a brave person… to be a strong YOU.
