"Take responsibility for your own life today. It is empowering. It is freeing. It's necessary for becoming who you were born to be. At some point in your life you may have been victimized...but that doesn't have to make you a victim unless you let it be. Allow everything you've been through to propel towards everything you're going to be. Take your power back from past and the people that hurt you by choosing to forgive and live. Stop looking for a hero and become one."
There comes a point when I tell myself I'am tired of feeling this kind of pain, yet with circumstances that reality presents me, I still find it hard to get over the feeling. I still struggle to move forward. I still dwell on the pain.
I wonder why am I still in this stage? How long will I be trapped in this dilemma? When will I reach the acceptance stage? When will I say enough?
Maybe it's because I loved, I trusted and I find it hard to believe that things turned out to be the way I never thought it would be. I never thought the person I loved could give me up and build the dreams we had with someone new.
The question is again, When will I stop? When can I really let go and move on? When can I finally say I'm over you? Maybe I know the answer, it's just really hard to get there. Maybe it's supposed to be NOW! ...and why not? Wouldn't you get over if this person is causing you so much pain? If instead of being at peace, you feel lonely. Instead of trying to spread love, you are indifferent? Wouldn't you move on if instead of remembering your happy memories together, the wound caused by this person is what lingers in your heart? Wouldn't you stop hoping if you don't matter at all; as if you never existed? Woudn't you stop if this person makes you feel so less and stupid? How long would you be in this bitterness stage?
Those questions I ask myself , Why can't I? When will I...?
I guess it's about time...
And just when I was contemplating on these, I decided to open my ebook Mandy Hale's Guide to Letting Go and Moving On, and it was so timely that I was brought to this page. I was so surprised that what was written was sort of like a message fit for me.Here it is:
" No one can make you happy except you. No one can make you miserable except you. As tempting as it is to blame the person that betrayed you or abandoned you or cheated on you or let you down as the cause of your unhappiness, it is ultimately up to you to decide if you are going to let your peace and joy and hope walk out the door simply because they did.Perhaps it's not someone else walking away from you that's causing you pain but the fact that you are unable to be there for yourself.
At the end of the day regardless of who did and what to you in the past, the only person responsible for your present is You. When all is said and done we all go through things in life that if we allowed them to, could destroy us, make us jaded, or bitter. However we can make the choice to let tough times polish us instead of demolish us We can take what they meant for bad and turn into something good."
So when is the right time to let go and move on...the answer should be NOW!!! It's still gonna be a long and winding road, but I guess I would just hang on to my faith and believe soon I'll find out why it never worked out . I lift it all to you Lord.
