Letting Go

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

The best lovers are those capable of loving from a distance far enough to allow the 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 OWN HAPPINESS WITHOUT EXPECTING HIM TO COME BACK. 

Letting go is not just setting the other person free, but it also setting yourself free from all bitterness, hatred, and anger that keep in your heart. Do not let the bitterness scare away your strength and weaken your faith, and never allow pain to dishearten you, but rather let yourself grow with wisdom in bearing it. 

You may find peace in just loving someone from a distance not expecting anything in return. But be careful, for this can sustain life but can 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 reality is today. 

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 reason as well. Always remember that if you lose someone today, it means someone better is coming tomorrow: If you lose love that doesn't mean that you failed in love. Cry if you have to, but make it sure that the tears wash away the hurt and the bitterness that the past has left with you.

Let go of yesterday and love will find its way back to you. And when it does, pray that it may be the love that will stay and last a lifetime. There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is though everything is a miracle.

Words "Not-So-Normal" People Want to Be Told

Try it for a change. Speak with kindness and acceptance, or at least with an open mind. Say, “you're amazing,” or “awesome,” “fabulous,” or some other equally pleasing adjective of your choice. Do not qualify your compliment with a but or an even if, and mean it. I love you son, you are as perfect as you were when you were born. There's nothing wrong with you, but a lot wrong with the world for not loving you the way I do. You're just like me, son, strong and brave. You're just like your mother, kind and beautiful. But I'd rather be like you in the way you’ve faced everyone, even me, when I’ve tried to sway you into becoming what you're not. Apologies and fears Say sorry. Because there's always something to be sorry for, even if it's an unspoken word or an acknowledged sentiment. Sorry I didn't want to listen to you before and sorry if I didn't know what to say. Sorry for my silence, for hoping "it" would pass or would...

I Work Here Because…

SOURCE One Short, Simple Mental Exercise for Work-Changing Results mo·tive  [moh-tiv] noun 1. something that causes a person to act in a certain way, do a certain thing, etc. Your motive is directly related to your motivation at work. Although this may seem like an obvious concept, if you take a step back and reflect on your motive, you begin to see how compounded and cluttered your motivation can become. For instance, answer this one simple question: Why do you work where you work? Can you fill in this blank: “I work here because…” If you’re struggling to answer these questions, first off, you’re not alone. Secondly, you might want to do some basic soul-searching. According to researchers at Portland State University and the University of Michigan, reflecting on the meaning of your work (your motive) is one of the most effective ways to keep your energy up at work. Once you figure out the “why”, write it down, post it somewhere around your desk, in your car or a...

A Minute to Say Hello and Forever to Say Goodbye

She said she had to go. Why does it take a minute to say hello and forever to say goodbye? We still had some time left and I was trying to drag it as long as possible. Only problem was I couldn’t think of anything that would force her to spend some more time with me. “So do you need a lift to some place?”, I asked hopefully … “No“, she said, she’d rather take a rickshaw. (Farewell! God knows when we shall meet again. ~William Shakespeare) “Well then”, I said, ”I guess this is the last goodbye then”… Why couldn’t she see that I was trying to stall her as long as I could ? This was the last time we would meet. I knew it. She knew it. It was inevitable. It was fate. It was destined. And it was tragic. What about all the time we spent together? We did have good time… No we had a great time. I made sure of it, making sure she was laughing or smiling all the time. I was always bad at goodbyes.They never came out right… I always choked on my best prep...
