True love is not about how you forgive, but how you forget; not what you see,

but
what you feel; not what you listen, but how you understand; and not how you let go but how
you hold on.
It’s been years since I let go of someone I really loved, someone I felt to be with for
the rest of my life. Reminiscing those moments that we were together, I feel happy despite the
betrayal she made. I never thought of her cheating on me because she’s the woman I love,
she’s the woman I wanted to spent my days forever, she’s the woman I wanted to be with
whenever I wake up every single morning of my life. Perhaps destiny didn’t want us to be
together. One day, I talked to her to meet her parents and officially asked for their permission.
She refused to say yes, little did I know there’s already another man she introduced as her
boyfriend to her parents. As I found out the truth, I let her go with his man, I never intended to
cause any trouble because I had no idea that she has already boyfriend. It was very awful
knowing that she took me for granted and I serve her with all I have.
“Nobody said it was easy It’s such a shame for us to part nobody said it was easy no
one ever said it would be this hard” these lines from the song the scientist really got my
attention it is because I could really relate it from what I experienced during those hard times.
The feeling of hatred and regrets gets into every tiny part of my being. Due to the expectation, I
have for the both of us, I was really devastated for not being able to reach it. It wasn’t easy, it
was really a hard battle for me. Maybe somebody might think that I was just making it a big
deal and I that it wasn’t that hard when you face some kind of betrayal and heartbreaks,
however we have different perspectives and sensitivity in life, you should not judge a person by
how they take or handle situations or problems themselves.
As many people say, life must go on so I did. I did move on and went to my next
chapter of life. I set myself free from the jail of extreme agony and tried to climb up again into
where I stopped. Here’s some lyrics I got from the song I’ll rise up, You're broken down and
tired Of living life on a merry go round And you can't find the fighter but I see it in you so we
gonna walk it out and move mountain We gonna walk it out And move mountain and I’ll rise
up I’ll rise like the day I’ll rise up I’ll rise unafraid I’ll rise up And I’ll do it a thousand times again
And I’ll rise up High like the waves I’ll rise up In spite of the ache I’ll rise up And I’ll do it a
thousand times again, I could say this lyrics told my story of moving on process. In spite of the
ache and burden I was carrying those times; I bravely rose up and showed to people that I could
still live without her. It wasn’t easy to accept quickly what happened but I tried my best to get
over with her and I succeed. In life a lot of pain and aches would try to hinder us from reaching
our goals in life, nonetheless never ever let that ruin our plans and dreams.
I never got tired of loving again. Apparently after that heartbreak, there were
several women whom I offered my love to them. Unfortunately, they refused to take it and I
received a lot of rejections. Like the lyrics of the song Beautiful scars; Broken all the pieces I've
been shaping lately focused on the things that didn't make no sense Guess that growing up was
never meant to be easy Yeah, I got used to doing everything sideways Didn't really care about
how anyone felt hiding my emotions down in different ashtrays Oh, but what is lost ain't gone
no, you can't just let go cause it's a part of you that will make you strong Embrace your flaws
I'm not gonna fight back what I've become yeah, I got bruises where I came from But I wouldn't
change if I could restart I ain't gonna hide these beautiful scars I've been going way too hard on
myself Guess that it's the reason I've been feeling like hell but I wouldn't change if I could restart
I ain't gonna hide these beautiful scars. Why on earth would I hide my scars when it’s them who
thought me a very precious lesson in life? Yes, I wouldn’t deny the fact that I was rejected
multiple times but it doesn’t mean that I would give up in life and not to love again. Those pains
and scars they’ve left me had me become stronger and wiser now. I embraced every scar I have
right now and I’m proud because I am able to overcome all of those.
I faced several heartaches and I thank God he’s been with me all through out my
journey. I never thought of giving up in life because it’s just one of the phases in life. All gets to
experience it. Those experiences I encountered made me realized one thing, that is you can’t
get what is really not meant for you. Our dreams and goals in life are greater than the
heartaches, fails, aches and hardships we’re facing right now. Therefore, just keep on going!
We’ll get there to where we dreamed of going.
