Leaving the past behind and moving forward...?


Take a second out to think about this: in your life you search and search for the right person for you. Every time you break up with someone you get one step closer to that person. You should look at moving on as getting closer to meeting the one. unknown
Quietly forgiving and moving on is a gift to yourself. Very often a change of self is needed more than a change of scene. Arthur Christopher Benson
When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us. Helen Keller
Letting go doesn't mean giving up... it means moving on. It is one of the hardest things a person can do. Starting at birth, we grasp on to anything we can get our hands on, and hold on as if we will cease to exist when we let go. We feel that letting go is giving up, quitting, and that as we all know is cowardly. But as we grow older we are forced to change our way of thinking. We are forced to realize that letting go means accepting things that cannot be. It means maturing and moving on, no matter how hard you have to fight yourself to do so." Unknown
Any change, any loss, does not make us victims. Others can shake you, surprise you, disappoint you, but they can't prevent you from acting, from taking the situation you're presented with and moving on. No matter where you are in life, no matter what your situation, you can always do something. You always have a choice and the choice can be power. Blaine
“Never let go of hope. One day you will see that it all has finally come together. What you have always wished for has finally come to be. You will look back and laugh at what has passed and you will ask yourself... 'How did I get through all of that?” Unknown
Readjusting is a painful process, but most of us need it at one time or another. Arthur Christopher Benson
Loyalty to a petrified opinion never yet broke a chain or freed a human soul. Mark Twain
He who cannot change the very fabric of his thought will never be able to change reality. Anwar Sadat
The most significant change in a person's life is a change of attitude. Right attitudes produce right actions. Willam J. Johnston
When you start to abandoning your old beliefs or values... you may be stuck at the threshold for two or three years. Before moving on, you have to clear away your cherished beliefs. Dick Raymond
Courage is not the absence of fear, but simply moving on with dignity despite that fear. Pat Riley
It isn't uncommon for people to hang on to what seems like a relationship with no future just because they had a great past in the early stages. Unknown
“If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to people or things.” Albert Einstein
"He that never changes his opinions, never corrects his mistakes, will never be wiser on the morrow than he is today. " Tryon Edwards
To be able to move on, one has to learn to forgive not only the person (or people) who have done one wrong but also oneself. Eugenia Tripputi
Has this world been so kind to you that you should leave with regret? There are better things ahead than any we leave behind. C. S. Lewis
When you are through changing, you are through. Bruce Barton
What you have become is the price you paid to get what you used to want. Mignon McLaughlin,
The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960 When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves. Victor Frankl
Leave the past behind as there is no future in it. Unknown

Lost Somewhere or Just Living My life?

Oh... waaw.... Sepertinya saya sudah menjadi anak yang hilang, tersesat entah di mana.   Seiring bertambahnya usia, kita terlalu malas mengurusi urusan temeh, drama yang tidak jelas. Fokus pada perjuangan kita sendiri untuk menjadi manusia sehingga setiap momen rentan, mungkin akan berumur pendek dalam ingatan. Saat kamu mencapai tingkat dalam hidup menjadi baik-baik saja, kamu merasa tidak memerlukan apapun lagi. Tapi Kenyamanan itu yang justru menimbulkan kebosanan.     But Sometimes, sometime... I miss those feelings, the freedom, the goosebumps when you see a new place, the joy of traveling, breathing air to your heart's content... being my self.

Tak ada waktu lagi aku memutuskan untuk mengenakan rok hitam. Tersenyum pada diriku sendiri saat berdiri di depan cermin, stoking hitam dan sedikit make-up. Melirik jam, baru sadar sudah jam 18:45. Seharusnya sudah berangkat. Aku memutuskan untuk berjalan ke bar karena cukup dekat, hanya beberapa blok dari tempat tinggalku. Aku mungkin akan memesan minum untuk membuatku sedikit lebih santai dan menunggu Ris. Sesampainya di bar tepat pukul 07:00, aku disambut Sue di depan counter. Aku memesan anggur putih, melirik sekeliling, satu kelompok orang di sebelah bawah bar, beberapa orang di salah satu stand dan beberapa anak perempuan di sudut agak gelap. Ada lagi sekelompok perempuan di ruang sebelah kolam renang tapi mereka semua memakai pakaian hitam atau t-shirt putih. Duduk menunggu, senang bahwa Sue sedikit sibuk k...
