LETTING GO


Letting Go. Releasing. Moving on. These are words that come to mind when holding on to the status quo becomes too painful or takes too much energy.
Even when we're ready, it's seldom easy to let go. But when we do, both we and the other person can become the people we were meant to be—loving without feeling we must control or be dependent on the other for our happiness.

To "let go" does not mean to stop caring. It means I can't do it for someone else.
To "let go" is not to cut myself off. It's the realization that I can't control another.
To "let go" is to admit powerlessness, which means the outcome is not in my hands.
To "let go" is not to try to change or blame another. It's to make the most of myself.
To "let go" is not to care for, but to care about.
To "let go" is not to fix, but to be supportive.
To "let go" is not to judge, but to allow another to be a human being.
To "let go" is not to be in the middle, arranging all the outcomes, but to allow others to affect their own destinies.
To "let go" is not to deny, but to accept.
To "let go" is not to nag, scold, or argue, but instead to search out my own shortcomings and correct them.
To "let go" is not to adjust everything to my desires, but to take each day as it comes and cherish myself in it.
To "let go" is not to regret the past, but to grow and live for the future.
To "let go" is to fear less and to love more.

Forgetting You

Since you left, I told myself I'm gonna be fine without you. I told myself I'd be better and I'd be happier. I tried so hard to be strong or even convince myself that I'm okay. I pray each night that the pain I have inside would go away. I even prayed that somehow, someday soon I'd forget you.

Since you left, I tried everything that could make me feel fine. I tried believe me, but I just can't. And I hate myself for not doing so. Because the memories of you still remain--and it hurts me so bad. It's killing me bit by bit. But still, I'm trying. I just wish I'd feel so numb. Maybe that way, I'll find myself forgetting you.

Surrender

Getting hurt by someone we love the most is the most painful thing to ever bear. Sometimes crying is not enough to ease the pain. Talking with friends and family sometimes doesn't stop the hurt. When we're in the battle, the only goal we have is to win the fight. Even if its clear that there's no sense of fighting anymore. Just because we love the person so much, more than ourselves, we we intend not to accept defeat.

But what if the person you're fighting for doesn't want to fight with you anymore? Or worst, doesn't want you to fight for him anymore? Would you still remain in the battlefield? Most of us would say, "Yes, I will keep on fighting!". But we are not aware that from the very start, we already loss the fight.

When were on a battle, sometimes it is far more better to surrender rather than to wrestle knowing that from the start we've already loss the fight. When we know love matters more than anything, and we know that nothing else REALLY matters, we move into the state of surrender. Surrender does not diminish our power, it only enhances it.

WISH YOU WERE HERE

I can be tough
I can be strong
But with you, It's not like that at all

There's a girl who gives a shit
Behind this wall
You just walk through it

And I remember all those crazy thing you said
You left them running through my head
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here

All those crazy things we did
Didn't think about it just went with it
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here

Damn, Damn, Damn,
What I'd do to have you
Here, Here, Here
I wish you were here

Damn, Damn, Damn,
What I'd do to have you
Near, Near, Near
I wish you were here.

I love the way you are
It's who I am don't have to try hard
We always say, Say like it is
And the truth is that I really miss

All those crazy thing you said
You left them running through my head
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here

All those crazy things we did
Didn't think about it just went with it
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here

Damn, Damn, Damn,
What I'd do to have you
Here, Here, Here
I wish you were here

Damn, Damn, Damn,
What I'd do to have you
Near, Near, Near
I wish you were here.

No, I don't wanna let go
I just wanna let you know
That I never wanna let go
Let go, Oh, Oh,

No, I don't wanna let go
I just wanna let you know
That I never wanna let go
Let go, Let go, Let go...

Damn, Damn, Damn,
What I'd do to have you
Here, Here, Here
I wish you were here

Damn, Damn, Damn,
What I'd do to have you
Near, Near, Near
I wish you were here.

DON'T SAY GOODBYE



Today I heard our favorite song on the radio
I close my eyes and saw our first hello
And then I saw the time we fell in love
In each others' arms
I open my eyes and you were gone
Suddenly I realized how I love you so
And how I get surprised without your love
Since the time we said goodbye
It's hard to make you stay
How I wish you'd never go away

Don't say goodbye

It's hard to let you go
Tomorrow seems so far away for me to know
If you and I will always be in love forevermore
Just leave me with the memories
All alone
All alone

Today I read your letters

And waited for your call
I wondered if you think of me at all
And then I turn the radio on
And heard our favorite song
Then I knew you'll soon be coming home

Don't say goodbye It's hard to let you go

Tomorrow seems so far away for me to know
If you and I will always be in love forevermore 
Don't leave me with the memories
All alone
Don't say goodbye It's hard to let you go
Tomorrow seems so far away for me to know
If you and I will always be In love forevermore
Don't leave me with the memories
All alone
All alone

Today I heard our favorite song on the radio

All alone
