this blog is actually from my sister, i just want it to share it with you..hope you learnt as i do..
“Some
may say it feels good to have someone. But does it come to a point
where you’re doing things that doesn’t define you at all? That doesn’t
reflect how you were raised up by your parents? That affects your whole
being? Sometimes letting go of what feels good means letting go of what you know is wrong.”
Sometimes
the hardest things and the wrong things are the same. There’s a reason
it’s so cliché. Most of us experienced enough to know it for a fact and
we articulate it again and again for the sake of reminding people that
it’s not just a habit of saying.
The
truth is, we are always stubborn when its over and in most cases, we’d
be pushing backwards to what we misconstrue is right for us on the
premise that it’s the one thing that holds us together. Let me talk to
you about comfort zones, we get too comfortable. Too comfortable that
when the time comes we have to stand up on our own, we waver.
Relationships
aren’t comfort zones. We don’t stay because we’re comfortable, because
we’ve made ourselves at home. Or because without it, we feel like there
is no other way. Relationships are not started to be settled for, but
for the people involved to grow together in love and in God. We have to
be aware if the relationship we are in has been propping us up or
pressing us down from really growing up and becoming the person we
dream ourselves to be.
Letting go is hard and the only way out is through, and it takes great courage to know when it is time to. Time to let go, move on, and give our heart what it deserves.
Some
of us are scared of being alone. Others fear possibility. I, for one,
will be honest in saying that I am frightened by my own vulnerability.
Someone once told me that I have to rise above the feeling of being in
love in order to overcome this frailty. Though I’ve evicted feelings of
understanding and in turn lifted a wall, I seem to still raise my hopes
in anything close to what I felt before. I guess that’s what comes with
being a heart over mind person; at times I wonder what it would be like
if I were rational more than I am emotional.
Happiness
is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it eludes you. But
if you turn your attention to other things, it comes and sits softly on
your shoulder.
Parallel to love.
True,
I’ve been looking for love in all the wrong places. Or should I say, in
all the wrong people. We are caught up in the moment, carried away, and
we take unlimited chances on anyone who makes an impression, when what
we should really be doing is waiting, and letting love find us…
to take a chance on us. I’ve been chasing after a feeling, for what
perhaps could be the wrong reasons, and because of that I know I’ve
been taking my chances on the wrong people.
“Another
what once-was…? Yes, but I think it was the right thing to do. Though I
still face loneliness, I made myself believe that I should not settle,
but go for what I deserve even if it means I’ll wait longer. WAITING… is the sweetest stress. I just realized now that God wants me to wait… for me to realize how to really love.
To wait and realize how to really love. So that when the right person
comes, who knows how great it would be? Because if it was GREAT then, how much more the next time?
And when that time comes, believe me, I’ll be waiting.
