Many things have gone and past. Be it wrong or right. Happy or sad. Sweet or bitter. Beautiful or disgusting. Innocent love or pure hatred. All these doesn't matter. It is the ends of them and the lessons learned that's important.
However, what's MOST important is to be strong in one's self...and move on. Sure, it might definitely be something sweet which you lost. Or someone beautiful whom you hold so dear to your heart.
By hanging on so tightly to the lost...you're not only letting yourself down. You're also selfishly letting everything which she stood for down...everything which you thought was so sweet or beautiful. All the heart stopping memories...will always be memories. Nothing else. No matter how much you try...a scar will always be on you. Even if you surgically remove the scar, it will forever be etched in your head....how did you get this scar, how much hurt you felt, how whenever you look at it..you cry your heart out...cuz it was something you've always dreaded having happen to you. Something you can never ever forget...no matter how hard you tried.
So STOP!! For all goodness' sake! For his/her sake!! For YOUR sake!! you have to find it in yourself by YOURself...not to forget..cuz I know you can't...but instead, to live on. NO! not cuz you're just going to be a burden to everyone especially the ones who love you! But...simply cuz YOU still deserve a beautiful life. So live your life which is STILL as beautiful as ever before! BUT only better!! Cuz the life lessons will...always...be...with you. Prove to yourself that you're stronger then that...that there's still so much purpose left for you!
In the past, scars were worn or 'displayed' proudly by warriors of any tribe. Why? Cuz scars told their own stories...stories of past battles. In some tribes, the more scars you had, the more people respected you...the more senior you would become. But more importantly, scars tell people that this person IS stronger and tougher now. He or she (yes there were women who fight too..you chauvinists!) has learnt how to fight better. A person without scars can only mean 2 things. One, he's already an accomplished fighter and nobody has ever landed a blow on him. Such accomplished warriors were rare..and considered legends. The other reason is that he was such a pussy and a disgusting coward that he has NEVER stepped foot in any battle and therefore, nobody has ever landed a blow on him.
My point is:
Firstly, there are people who live perfect lives without quarrels or problems. These, in today's world, are still considered legends. And can only be found in fairytales at your local library.
Secondly, there are people who are afraid of stuff like quarrels, fights, changes and risk. They are afraid of getting hurt...of getting scarred..afraid of lost. These people will never learn anything. For to really learn something, you have to go through it yourself. Like how if you made your friend do your homework, you will never get anything out of it. But your dear friend will be smarter, better...for he/she did the questions and if ever..any of those questions came out, he/she will know how to get it right...not you.
You may say recovering from a lost is abit different, but it's all actually the same. Just harder. But then let me ask you...what's it worth accomplishing when it's easy? Recovering from a lost just takes time...how long? That depends on the individual. That depends on...you.
I'm not asking you to wear your scars with pride. Or to forget it...treat it like nothing. no...I'm asking you to give your own self another chance...a chance to live life like it was supposed to be lived! Live for yourself. Not others. Because that's what makes you...you.
And you are unforgettable.
