Last Teardrop


Take time to let go...

It takes so much courage and awareness to wrap around ourselves in each time we talk about the concept of hurt and pain.

Yes, you already have had too much of broken relationships, of broken assumptions that your feelings be reciprocated, of broken hopes that there is still someone out there who is really set for you.  And no, you aren’t going to read this article because you think it’s just another form of an emotional drain and customary advice of the melodramatics.

But yes you’re a part of this world and you’ve also been deep-seatedly fighting for that probably similar concern, and you also reach some point of exhaustion.

         “Deep within your heart you know it’s time to move on when the fairytale that you once knew is gone.”   

Every relationship formed is a boost to every person’s character. The idea of acquiring a relationship without exerting too much effort is a big turn on in the attraction part of our brain. Through this we get the idea that we are loved unconditionally. The bond that is created which overrules any unfamiliarity makes us all believe that the affections we receive can be unconditional or at least strong enough not to give in to any possible problems that may arise in the future.

However, points come in our lives when these relationships which we first thought would give us the most nurturing strength break at one reason or another. Each relationship’s needs vary in that it also requires specific efforts to maintain it. It may be a natural process that we get angry and cry over the cut that has been made in us. Although some people manage such situations by cursing the other person & revealing how negative they have been, and others manage it by appearing as the most rueful victim. Either way, we have to remember that when there’s no point for saving a relationship or that saving it would mean sacrificing our dignity for something we’re pretty sure is already hard to heal again, then it’s way better to let it go. 

Deep within your heart you know it’s time to move on when the fairytale that you once knew is gone, says one song. It’s true. Granting that it may be hard and it may happen at different times for different people, we need to accept that there are things in life that have to happen in order to teach us some important lesson.

We might have not been spared of too much hurt.  The damage might have also seemed irreparable. But that doesn’t mean that the other person is a total amiss and hurting. It may only be that they came at a point in our lives when their stage of life and maturity is not yet downright and complete or that their ideals don’t  match with ours. 

There are so many factors to consider, but one thing that’s for sure is that these people have been given to us to teach us lesson that only them can do. Much as there is no good or bad person, only people who teach us different lessons in life. It’s God who works to make the right things happen. To that end, cursing the people who hurt us or appearing like the pathetic victim all the time would be of no help.                        
   “Our vision clears, when our eyes are washed away with tears”                                                                       
We cry largely for all these painful constraints. But tears also serve another purpose, and that is to clear up our vision and straighten out bent beliefs and feelings about the pains of life and how we could better deal with them. These tears serve to help us see things the more helpful way.


Final words though, if it's a choice between dignity and letting go, choose the former. God has given us extensive ways from which we could learn life's lessons-- and one of them is through tears.               



Postscript: Thank you very much for letting pass a time reading this blog post. This is one of the many ideas that I would like to share with you and I'd be glad to make you part of the writing process by freely leaving your thoughts and suggestions.
