Breaking up with a loved
one is not the end of the world. Yes, you may feel terrible at the moment--Crying
your hearts out until no more tears come out -- Incessant blaming of yourself
or your former partner--Questioning yourself what could have been done to save
the relationship….. Get a grip on yourself! You can’t turn back time. Life must go on! Acceptance is the key to being happy again…:D So I say, breaking up is not merely an end to
something not worth cherishing forever
but rather a NEW BEGINNING to
something even better…and brighter… !!!!
Being single is tough. But
have you ever asked yourself the things you missed while being in a relationship? Let me tell you the things I missed the most:
1.
FREEDOM :
that is, doing the things I really want without asking for any consent
like going out with friends whenever and wherever I want, seeing old college
buddies, attending occasions, planning trips etc.
2.
QUALITY TIME WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS:
it is not all about doing things with just the two of us anymore. Now I get to
enjoy more time with those who truly cares for me—grocery time with my mom
during day off, movie watching with my bro, sleepover at my friend’s house,
story-telling with my dad.
3.
A NEW HOBBY : sports? Learning a foreign language perhaps…cooking!
4.
FOCUS ON CAREER : whatever happened to my
original plan of going abroad before he came to my life? hmmm….
5.
STRESS-FREE LIFE – no more fights on a
regular basis (hurrah!). No need to adjust to his moodiness.
6.
TIME WITH GOD – Now I get to talk with Him more often.
Singleness gives us a sense
of independence…of control…of getting to know ourselves better… and not relying
on someone for us to be complete. It is a growing experience and a part of
life. Besides, who ever said that marriage is better? It is merely DIFFERENT.
Singleness prepares us to this ‘different ' stage. So no need to RUSH! Trust in God’s perfect timing…
Nevertheless
being single means freedom to love again!
