Blues of A Fellow Blogger..

It's late into the nite, had a good full day earlier on. Just went to a couple of friends blog site for their recent updates. Kinda of sad to read the some of the recent blog entries (from a friend) and to find them to be full of frustrations and pain.

Seems like my friend couldn't let go of the past and resulting in the current torments. A lot of questions going through my friend's mind. Hope you'll be able to find your answers that you so badly need in order to move on. Maybe the following paragraphs can help to point you in the right directions.

Why can't we let go of the past? Bottom line, it is due to the attachment of a self ~ be it, myself, yourself, himself or herself. As long as you have an attachment to self, it is difficult to move on. With such attachments, you'll constantly replay past events, not allowing it to fade into part of your memory as it should be and the story will never unfold into a new chapter.

Why are we so attached to certain people, objects and events. Ignorance is the word. It's a huge subject and my writing skills is inadequate. So, i'll be a bit more specific for my friend's case. If we are not ignorant of the fact that there are a lot others that care for us, we'll not do things to hurt them and to harp on a certain person or event. These people (including our parents) only wish us well and hope to see us move on in life.

If you truly love these people and yourself, you'll move on and do whatever is in the best interests for them. Let me put it plainly ~ If you do not do things in their best interests, they get hurt and cos they are hurt, you'll feel bad or guilty. Both parties suffers. In that way, you do not love them and yourself since you let them and you get hurt. That's not the art of love.

Hope friend you are reading this and you get what i'm stating and you'll be able to let go both the person and the habits soon. Please be soon before any more people dear to you gets hurt.

Btw, i remembered reading this somewhere ~ "we are here to succeed in life, there's no failure". There's dual meaning and i'm sure you get the first meaning. The second ~ being born of our parents, we succeed (inherit) their love, one of the greatest in this world. If so, how can we fail when we have the greatest in life.
