I read a quote in yet another book in which one of its characters says : "Broken Heart is a good sign,it means atleast we have tried for something". I find it so true. So many times in our lives we have carried a broken heart and burdened our bodies with it....a heart broken not just for Love but for many of the simple,tiny things/issues in our life.Like for eg. when I was a child and way too immature,my heart used to break when I used to see my parents giving more attention to my younger sister,I always used to compare the Love I got from them when I was at the age of my younger sister. We always tend to measure love,measure affection,care,attention in terms of how much and why ??
Why someone whom I love,whom I like doesnt love me or like me back ? Why is it that the person whom I loved and the person who even loved me back (proving my general expectations and pessisms wrong !) left me all alone suddenly? These are the several questions that linger in our hearts and keep eating our heart and its health like a beetle/termite keeps eating a wood bit by bit. We lose our happiness,our joy,our self-respect making that sadness,that heart break,that heart ache our only life at that particular period of our life.
What we or rather I had not realised during those times is that agreed,my heart is broken and now it needs to be mended instead of breaking it down anymore further by using weapons like suffering,grumbling,complaining and thinking how unfortunate I am in this world.I used to think in those times,that I am the only person who has been made to suffer a heart break as a punishment from God.
What I didnt realise is that letting go and moving on with life was a better option and the only medication for this heart breaks/aches....that it was better to realize and accept the truth even if a person disliked me,things were better if I had accepted saying that "ok,if he/she didnt like me,its his opinion cos I cant be liked and loved or returned with same gestures/feelings like the one I have for that other person,its an another person and every individual has a different thinking" or when I didnt get what I had wanted like failing 2 attempts to get an admission to medical college,it would have been better if I would have said "ok,may be medicine is not on list,may be God has some better plans for me or if it really is then I shud work harder if at all I am earnestly passionate about achieving it as my profession".
I remember many times wherein I have literally wasted my life and its happy moments just thinking of how sad I was,how my life was bad,how people hurted/cheated me,how I couldnt achieve many of the things I had wanted from life.....that I was a failure and on and on....
Though I am a more mature person now (atleast thatswhat I think so ! :) ), I now value those moments gone by and alas I cant do anything....but as far as my furture is concerned,I have descided that I wont keep grumbling and streching my grief and sorrow....whatever it is I will let it go and I will try everything to Move On with my life as God has given to me....I know its easy to say but hard to follow but I hope and I am quite optimistic that I will follow this new rule in my life....for whatever pain it is,it is better to let go,..for it will make me lighter and much better as a person....I have experienced that the more I tend to attach to the person/thing I have lost,the more that pain haunts over me like a deadly ghost of sorrow,I know its tough to overcome all this,I am not saying that once I suffer any heartache/heartbreak or any loss,I should simply sit quiet and smile and laugh as if nothing has happened.....I just mean that I or rather we all should accept that loss,nurture and know its value and then move on as a part of life.....
I might sound more like a lecturer or spiritual to even myself which is a good surprise :),but thatswhat I have learnt & understood so far....it depends from person to person how to deal with all such things that hurt your hearts.....
but as of now I have known Letting Go and Moving On ...& that is a much better thing to do than to keep crying and keep grumbling over my losses/failures/disppointments/heart breaks/heart aches/sorrows and etc etc .... !!!!!
Though I am stopping here but its definetly not an End,its just a Start for me & may be someday when I am down and tend to forget these good lessons/things,I will come back and read this post of mine again and again till I am back to normal :).... here I would like to state yet another quote that I read in some magazine which says : "Some people are always grumbling because roses have thorns;I am thankful that thorns have roses" - by Alphonse Karr ....... Simply Beautiful & Lovely !!!! -:))
