Stop blaming yourself for a relationship that didn’t work.
Last night, when I was about to sleep, a certain song just popped into my head out of nowhere. I haven’t heard this song for so long. It was very timely actually, since it’s all about what I’ve been trying to do for a little while now, leaving the past behind and trying to move on with my life. So I turn on the radio and requested for the song, and listened to it. I could totally relate to the words of the song. The lyrics goes like this:
Since you left me, I never really tried
To put my life to where it should belong
And I’ve always let the past gone by
I’m realizing that it could be wrong
But now I finally knew, I had to let it go
To make way for a brighter tomorrow
So now I’m leaving yesterday behind
And finally I’ve made up my mind
To let the memories stay away
And think about today
I’m leaving yesterday behind
‘Cause now I’ll try to live my life once more
The way I did before
Since I know that I never will forget
The memories that made my yesterday
I will try not to let it interfere
The choices I will make along the way
‘Cause I’m not living in a world of fantasy
I’m here now in the world of reality
The song is called Leaving Yesterday Behind, and listening to it, I realized I’m still not able to let the past go completely yet. I know I’ve been trying to move forward and not to think too much of yesterday, but there are times when I would still look back and ponder on things, like what went wrong, or what changed. Of course, the getting over process is not easy, and it certainly won’t happen overnight. It will probably take months, if not years.
I must admit, memories of the past still wash over me from time to time, and I still get overwhelmed. But I know I should start learning how to let go completely, because that’s the only way I could go on with my life. If I’ll just allow myself to be tied to the past, I won’t be able to see and enjoy what the future has in store for me, right?
I replayed the song a few times before I finally fell asleep. I don’t know what made me remember that song again, but I’m glad I did. It’s definitely time to move on and leave yesterday behind.
Sumuko ka, sinuko mo ako. Isinuko mo yung sa ating dalawa.

Atta girl Alexa!Congratulations. Things happens for reasons!
A failed relationship is nothing more than failed chemistry.
If it’s happen earlier? It’s good at least you get your lesson that early, My 30 years w/ my husband suck!!! I just knew that he betrayed me when he is in his coffin, his other woman just showed up w/ there child, it’s hard to face the fact that you are blind for long time,Its like I’m sleeping w/ my enemy, this is happen 10 years ago after the burial I travel to USA now I’m here w/ my family enjoying the good life, we take it as history that need to burry forever…
super like mommy alexa belle
I know exactly how u feel.. I was in a long term relationship and I even share a child with my ex and I thought it was the end of the world when we seperated…we just grew apart. I thought I would never love again…i didnt date anyone for 2yrs coz I was scared of getting hurt again…but look at me now 4yrs later im happily married to a guy who truly loves me and we now have a 1 child and my daughter…true love does come to those who wait..whrn the time is right it will find you. Just make sure that the next guy who comes along deserves you at your best and accept you whole heartedly and unconditionally at your worst.
PAST IS PART OF OUR LIFE,,WE GROW THROUGH THEM….DONT CRY COZ ITS DONE, SMILE COZ IT HAPPEN….AND THEN, FIGURE IT OUT HOW TO FIX IT AGAIN
past is past…the most importat is to accept what is the realityb cuz ACCEPTANCE IS THE KEY TO MOVE ON…then you will find yourself to be happy…God bless everyone…
..Do not cling to events of the past or dwell on what happened long ago. Watched for the new thing I am going to do… (Isa.43.1b-19)
in any given failed relationship no one is to be blame coz if its not meant to be, it will never be! no matter how much u try to change the course of destiny, someway somehow fate will find its way! inspite of the hurt just keep on loving for true love only comes to those who practice it! and trust my words, just pray that God may giv u a good partner for who knows? He might giv u someone even better!
‘true..’ -just going through with that.. (More than 3yrs is enough) hayyzz..
Dwelling on the past can and will ruin your future.
it is just a matter of admittance..
