November 2011 ~ A Little Escape

This month is full of mixed emotions.

I got hurt.

I cried.

I followed my heart.

I finally figured out how to be happy.

Making decisions is for sure one of the toughest things to do in our life. We all have made decisions, and for sure, all of us became happy for choosing the best one and of course, all of us have already blamed ourselves for making a wrong one.

There are times that we decide, not for ourselves, but for others... for others' happiness. We choose what will make them happy even if it won’t make us feel the same way. This is because we care for that person too much, and we don't want to see them get hurt.

Last October, I made a very big decision that did make a great change in my life. I know to myself that the decision I made was not really for me. I made that decision basically because I care for that person, and I cannot afford to see that person hurt. I got hurt because of the decision I made. But I didn't mind it because I know I made that person happy.

Later on, I realized that things won't be great if it’s not meant to work great. Even if you try your best to make it work, if it’s not meant to be, it won’t be.

I came to a point where I was given a chance to choose again. Same choices were given, and all I’ve got to do is to choose whether I’ll stay with choice #1 or choose choice #2. I was so close to choosing to stay with choice #1 until I realized that it is already the time for me to follow what my hearts says. I guess, I realized too that it is also the time for me to take the risk.

I did choose choice #2. And I cannot tell how happy I am right now. I can say that choosing choice #2 is one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. :”> I might be sad sometimes thinking that I let choice #1 go, but when those times come, all I do is think of the happiness that choice #2 brings in my life. Happiness that if I choose choice #1, I would not experience.

Final words?
