“Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened”
That YM status of my colleague caught my attention. It’s very intriguing and succeeded in giving me the inspiration to write this entry. Ermmm…I had written in my previous entry, about taking chances, about choosing between two choices when we found ourselves in an intersection. Was it better to stop that uncertain thing, hard to be realized while it’s still early, save us from the bitterness and heartache that might come when it had to end or when it didn’t go as hoped? Or why didn’t we take the chance and go on, savor each moment while it last, till the time it had to end?
The first option was more logical, in terms of playing safe. Why bother taking risk with no guarantee of how it might be later on? It also spared the time that might be wasted (if it could be considered wasted). But by choosing this option, wouldn’t you be wondering how good it could be if you just take the chance? Or how it might be working so well in the end. After all, we never know what the future holds, right? You’ll never know how good it felt to have someone to hold, someone to share simple, unforgettable moments with, someone to confide in, someone to lean on, someone that could brighten up your worst day and make you smile.
Ok I’m gonna focus more on the second option here. If it’s time that everything had to be ended, what would it feel? Angry? Resent? Disappointed? Regret? If so… let’s ask this question, why. Why should you be angry, resentful, disappointed, etc? Weren’t you already knew the risk, the potential outcome that might happen? Weren’t you the one who chose that path?
I know talk is easy. If I were in that position, I’d probably feel the same. Sure, it would hurt…a lot. Especially when expectations were getting higher and feelings were getting deeper. Angry and disappointed thinking about all the sacrifices I’d made, they were all for nothing.
But were they all really for nothing? Weren’t all the times we had together, the things we shared, the laughter and smiles we brought to each other worth the sacrifices and efforts? Think about this; How we in the limited amount of time were able to touch someone else’s life, be a beautiful (hopefully) part in it, and (again hopefully) give and learn valuable lessons if life.
Beside, what’s the point of dwelling in those negative emotions and thoughts? Heartache is human, but it’ll heal within time. *sigh… Well, the choice is up to each of us, which one we’d take. I’d always been quite logical and prepared for worst case scenario. Just like what I wrote quoting Robbie Williams’ song, Feel. When it had to end, I’d turn on my emotionless, cold and logical mode again, the things I’d been so good at.
When it’s over, don’t cry because of it. Smile because it happened.
Gloria Estefan - Here We Are
Here we are
Face to face
We forget, time and place
Hold me now
Dont let go
Though it hurts and we both know
The time we spend togethers gonna fly
And everything you do to me
Is gonna feel so right
Baby when youre loving me
I feel like I could cry
cause theres nothing I can do
To keep from loving you
Here we are
All alone
Trembling hearts, beating strong
Reaching out, a breathless kiss
I never thought could feel like this
I want to stop the time from passing by
I wanna close my eyes and feel your lips are touching mine
Baby when youre close to me
I want you more each time
And theres nothing I can do, to keep from loving you
(bridge)
Theres nothing I can do
Im helpless in your arms
Oh baby what you do
Im in love, this is it
Theres no turning back this time
No no no
Here we are
Once again
But this time were only friends
Funny world
Sometimes lies
Become the game, when loves the prize
And though no one knows whats going on inside
And all the love I feel for you
Is something I should hide
When I have you close to me
The feelings so sublime
That theres nothing I can do
To keep from loving you
No, no, no, cant keep from loving you baby no, no, no
