To those who ended up with nothing but Memories

I just watched the video I posted earlier wondering who made it. It must be the sweetest and most meaningful message. I’ve been in the person’s situation, wanting someone so bad, sharing good memories with him, and in the end you just become friends because he can only offer friendship. It sucks, big time, and the video created an almost perfect picture of how it feels to be in the situation. I included the message below for the people who don’t want to watch the video. And to the one who made it, I’m sorry things didn’t go the way you wanted, but don’t worry, you are not alone. J

“One of the reasons why people get so sentimental is because memories are the only things that don’t change… when everything else does. There are things in life that you can’t hold on forever, no matter how much you fight for it. Sometimes destiny isn’t always good, it becomes playful. When you met someone you learned to love, you thought that it was destiny that made your paths cross. But what if making your paths cross is just a part of the game that the playful destiny creates? Making you realize in the end that the person you thought that was destined for you wasn’t really meant to stay… but only destined to make you feel love and leave you when you’ve already fallen. It’s not easy to state a reason when you decide to leave your love. Some might think it’s just an excuse… some might not actually believe it… some might even be mad at you… what they don’t see is the fact that it hurts to hurt someone who doesn’t deserve to be hurt… especially when you can’t actually state the reason why you have to leave. You can never own something that was never yours, so let’s stop gripping on things we expect to last forever. Nothing lasts forever. Forever is a lie. Everything is transitory. So while you have something in your hand, keep in mind that it was just borrowed, so that someday when it’s gone, it won’t take you eternity just to let it go. When your feelings get strong for someone, it’s always wise to stop a while and give your heart a time to breathe. A time to use your mind to weigh the situation based on reason not on emotion, because the saddest thing that can happen is when one fall in love while the other wants nothing more than friendship.

Love can sometimes be magic, but magic can sometimes be an illusion. There are times when I wish that I was limited to certain emotions, so that I’ll never have to experience pain, never feel betrayed or disappointed, and never get my fragile heart broken. But the same thing means that I’ll never know how it feels to love and be loved in return… the thought of it scares me. To have heart that’s whole but numb or a heart that’s broken but real. Someday, we’ll be all be looking back to those days we learned to love, cry, and fight. Maybe when that time comes, we’ll be laughing at our old dumb selves realizing how stupid we were to stand up for things we knew weren’t really meant for us. But I guess learning takes time, and mistakes make one’s journey fun. Life is what we make it. Love makes the world go round, so let’s live, love, and take whatever pain it brings, though it’s hard to wait around for something that I know will never happen, it’s harder to stop when I know it’s everything I’ve always wanted. But you know what? I’m glad, I’m glad it happened...”
