The Lesson of Letting Go

The Lesson of Letting Go

by Chrochie Consuegra

Sometimes, in our relentless efforts the person we love, we fail to recognize and appreciate the people who love us. We miss out so many beautiful things and simply because we allow ourselves to be enslaved by our own selfish things and our own selfish concerns. Go for the person of deeds and not for the person of words, for you will find rewarding happiness not with the one you loved but the one who loves you more.

The best lovers are those who are capable of loving from a distance, far enough to allow the other person to grow, but never too far to feel the love deep within your being. To let go of someone doesn't mean you have to stop loving, it only means that you allow that person to find his or her own happiness without expecting him or her to come back. Letting go is not just setting yourself free from all fears, bitterness, hatred and anger that you keep in your heart.

Do not let the bitterness rare away your strength and weaken your faith, and never allow pain to dishearten you, but rather let you grow with wisdom in bearing it. You may have found peace in loving someone from a distance not expecting anything in return. But be careful, for this can sustain life but never give enough room for us to grow. We can all survive with just beautiful memories of the past. But real peace and happiness come only with open acceptance of what is reality today...

There comes a time i our lives when we chance upon someone so nice and we just find ourselves so intensely attracted to that person. This feeling soon become part of our thoughts and actions. The sad part is when we begin to realize that this person feels nothing more than just friendship, or the feelings he or she might have for you is just too far from how you love him or her. We start our desperate attempt to get noticed and be closer but in the end our efforts are still unrewarded and we end up being sorry for ourselves.

You don't have to be bitter on love. What you need to learn is how to accept the verdict of reality without being bitter or sorry for yourself... Believe me, you would be better off giving that dedication and love to someone more deserving. Don't let your heart run your life, be sensible and let your mind speak for itself. Listen not only to your feelings but to reason as well.

Always remember that if you lose someone today, it means that someone better is coming tomorrow. If you lose love that doesn't mean that you failed in love. Cry, if you want to, but make sure that the tears wash away the hurt and bitterness the past has left you. Let go of yesterday and love will find it's way back to you. And when it does, pray that it may be the love that will stay and last a lifetime.

" When you LOSE someone... and you think you were the one who loved the most between the two of you... he or she LOSE MORE... for someday you can love someone the way that you loved him or her... But her or she will never be loved again the way that you did !!!!! "
