The lost lovers or the betrayed one or the let down ones would always say that we did as much as we could to get the person, what was it that I didn’t do? But the answer here is simple – it was not meant to be. Most relations end with people fighting and shouting over one another and that probably remain the last signs of your time together, but is it worth it? The fact that the end of a relation does not end your life and maybe you have to face that person somewhere down the line cannot be a burden you want to have yourself with. All you have to do first is to accept that it is over and move on. This life is to small for us to stop at a moment… if you don’t look around you might just miss something.
Perhaps if we ever meet again, many may not cry over the situation but smile through.
This also needs to be the end of our stories. Yes there would have been fights, yes there would have been differences and something may never leave you for the rest of your lives but if we never let it go it can do nothing but harm us.
The reality of life is that it always gives you an opportunity to make up at least with people and we must take it as soon as we can or you never know you may not get that opportunity later and may have to regret it some day. If we try to make things normal from one end, if we are good from our side it is difficult to get a continuous onslaught from the other side.
We may not always get the desired end, the desired result, the ultimate price but then who said you will always get one. One may say that he did all he could to get it whether it be a work or a relation but the question is didn’t the other person also do enough to deserve it?
We, always like the famous fable, try to make the grapes sour when unable to achieve the goal but the fact is that some things are just not meant to be and if you keep it within yourself forever and never face the reality it can do nothing but make you unhappy.
Once you accept the fact, once you let the pain pass through and accept the fact that the person is gone and remember the old times, it would only make you remember the good ones because that is what it was all about.
Everything and everyone in our life is a learning experience and we have to keep learning the lesson whether good or bad. Remember never regret a thing that once made you smile. Its worth it!!
Forgive, forget and move on… only thing it could affect is your attitude… it makes you light and happy!!

Sorry for this late post. My part-time cleaner who has worked with me for 8 years has left for her hometown for a long vacation to celebrate Hari Raya Puasa and possibly for an operation. It has been tough for old ladies like me to cope with house-cleaning and other chores :-( but it is good exercise for me as otherwise, I would be glued to my laptop :-). In time, I will get used to the routine and will gain efficiency and speed. I pray the Almighty will bless my dear part-time cleaner and heal her physical ailment and that she will not have to go for surgery. Take care and have a pleasant evening!
