I really can't remember if this was sent by someone or i have just read it somewhere...hmm...oh well, i just want to share it with you guys as i feel it makes sense, especially to those who find it difficult to let go...



"Sometimes we close our eyes & just listen to the echoes of our hearts. We all fall in love & there are times when we love so much that we lose ourselves in our own emotions. More often than not, we wonder why there are love that grows cold. We would start to search for answers & try to find where love has gone wrong. But in the end, we find ourselves where we started for we can not question love when it has its own reasons.
Love will always be as it has always been…silent, mysterious, & profound.

Many of us believe that love is forever, that love never dies, only to be disillusioned in the end when we find our hands empty & our hearts longing. We mistakenly have looked at love as a need to be fulfilled. But love is only a gift to us. We should not hold it in our hands for we may never find the strength to let it go when it decides to leave. We should only embrace its warmth & glow until it lasts & then freely open our arms when its time to say goodbye.

When we fall in love with someone, we don’t that feeling to end, for it is everything we are, everything that we wanted to be. We pray that love will stay & grow in our hearts. But if it doesn’t, then we should never let our lives be taken by it, for life should not end where heartaches begin.

There is always a reason why we have to move on. When we have to say goodbye to the feelings we wanted to stay forever, let us not wave our hands with a heavy heart, for love will have to set its wings free & find the place where it belongs. We may have lost it but then again, when we close our eyes & listen to the echoes of our hearts, we will hear that feeling’s resounding silently…forever."
