It is true that acceptance
is the first step to moving on
but I have always believed that
we can never forget the person we love.
You may have accepted
that he doesn't love you anymore
but have you really asked
yourself if you feel the same way?
I guess you really
haven't gotten over your feelings for him.
Your love is the chain that
keeps you bound to your past and for
as long as that love remains silently burning
in your heart you will never forget
the person that feeds that flame.
Acceptance will put one
foot forward on the road to recovery,
but the only way to move on completely
is to get the other foot out from the
love that binds your heart to him.
Peace is in knowing that
you are breathing the fresh air
of the present without being tainted
by the stale memories of the past.
Every time you cry
whenever you remember him adds one
glowing ember to the flame in your heart.
Every time you become sad
when you think of your happy moments together
blows more air to that burning fire.
As long as there is that
fiery emotion burning inside your heart,
you will never be at peace with yourself.
For most of us,
there will always be a past that
will remind us of beautiful memories
that we wish would come back to life.
But the difference between
those who have found real happiness
and those who are tirelessly searching for it lies
in their ability to stop living in their past
and wishing for the things that could have been.
Happy people are those who know how to
accept the verdict of the past
and forgive themselves for being part of it.
When we have loved and failed,
we have to grieve for a while
and then learn to stop loving that person.
Only when we are able to do
that can we open our hearts anew
and learn to love again without
having to be burdened by the guilt
and regrets of the past.
