A Runner

There are times when we want to return to the past, to lose memories, and feel unable to stop looking backward. There is one philosophy that I love the most ‘bout life. A philosophy of a runner. A good runner is the one who ran as he leaned his body forward and keep looking ahead, but one time there was a time when he wants to look back. Seeing how far he had ran. To see where his opponent’s position is. Then what happen? 

He fell and failed to win the game. The runner is me, you. Us. In the present time. When we keep looking backward, keep regretting the past that have occurred. We can’t move on even more letting go. Trapped and having no effort and courage to creating new step. And not trying, even when we know it’s the only way. Keep staring at the footprints that have been made, won’t change a thing. You cannot move forward if you continue to hold on to what’s behind you. It’s time to let go so that you will have both hands open to grab a hold of the future. Cause you know what? Tragedies did happen. Then what are you gonna do? Stop trying? Give up? Quit? No. When your heart breaks, you have to fight like hell to make sure you’re still alive. Because you are …and that pain you feel, it’s life.

To let go is to be thankful for past time that made you laugh, cry and made you grow. It’s about all you had, all you have and all that you’ll have soon. Letting go is having the courage to accept change, and the strength to keep moving. Letting go is growing up.

When life is sweet, say thank you and celebrate. And when life is getting bitter, say thank you and grow.
