Set yourself free... (part 3)

Relationships built on jealousy and selfishness is doomed from the very beginning. The hardest part is of losing love is letting go and moving on. Most of us cry endlessly over things that could have been, but never will be.

"God allows us to experience pain to make us stronger and better persons. He will see us through the most trying and difficult times in our lives. Only in our trust in Him can we learn to find joy in our tears and happiness in our sorrows."

In many failed relationships, separation comes as an inevitable choice but moving on always proves to be twice as difficult as letting go. Sometimes, the end of a relationship is imposed on us, but our choice to hold on is always beyond circumstances.

Letting go is a decision that can never be dictated on us. It is a resolve we make ourselves.

"ACCEPTANCE IS THE KEY TO A NEW BEGINNING, AND TIME IS THE HEALER OF ALL WOUNDS." Even if the storm casts its fearful shadow, there will always be a light after darkness and lonely moments. There is always a hope for those who believe. There is always a chance for those who try.

'LOSING SOMEONE MAY NOT BE A LOSS AT ALL, BUT A BLESSING, BECAUSE SOMEONE EVEN BETTER IS YET TO COME.'

There is nothing wrong in expressing our feelings to someone we love, but we must always be sensitive to the signals that tell us when to rationalize and be sensible. There comes a time when we fall for someone who is not interested in us because his attention is focused on someone else. There are many times when we love but don't get loved in return. There are times when the sign ahead says STOP and we stubbornly head on.

If we say love is unconditional, then we should not expect for anything. But why do we get frustrated when love turns sour? Because we still subconsciously seek acceptance and assurance from the people we care about.

"BEING IN LOVE CAN BE THE MOST WONDERFUL THING WE COULD EXPERIENCE, BUT IF IT BEGINS TO CONSUME OUR WHOLEBEING, THEN WE HAVE TO STOP AND LET OUR MIND AND NOT OUR HEARTS DICTATE OUR ACTIONS. ONLY WHEN WE LEARN TO ACCEPT OUR FATE, AND UNDERSTAND THE MEANING OF OUR FAILURES, CAN WE TRULY GO ON WITH LIFE WITHOUT HAVING TO LOOK BACK AND CRY OVER THE THINGS THAT COULD HAVE BEEN BUT NEVER WILL BE....."
