“To the delirious eye, more lovely things of Paradise and Love-and all our own. Than young Hope in his sunniest hour hath known”-Edgar Allan Poe

Conversations these past few days with my friends have made me want to write my take on letting go.
Letting go:
Breathing deeply and letting it all out. Heaving a sigh. Putting all the "bad" out in the air without a care.
And I guess it starts with acknowledging that you aren’t completely over– Love. Hate. Disappointment. Anger. Pick your poison. I think these are the hardest emotions or states of thought to let go of because of their gravity and capacity to move you and even to change you. But sometimes all these emotions are at the point of consuming you and taking over your life to the point that even your perspectives are governed by these volatile emotions.
Given, we’ve all had our share of that word Love. In the words of Neil Gaiman, it takes hostages. And maybe we’re all suckers for love. After all, movies, books, songs, and topics of conversation revolve around love love love.
And we aren’t sick of it(c’mon admit it!) . Because we still believe in it. We aren’t as jaded or as cynical as we think we are. We’re just afraid it’ll surprise us and render us vulnerable. But isn’t that what makes us giddy? What makes life exciting? Makes you glow? We’re scared because if it comes we trouble over how to keep it. Never really appreciating when it’s there. And when we lose it. That’s where bitterness stems. Sometimes we’re even so poor at recognizing it.
But what hurts the most, I guess, is when you know you have it. You know it’s undeniably there. And real. But you have to let go.
Who knows why?
Time?
Effort?
Someone else?
Who knows!
But one thing’s certain. Let go! (Ok, I know, easier said than done hehe but I trust you’d know ;p) Because you know, YOU aren’t getting anywhere hoping and waiting. Because the more you wait and hope, the more it gets agonizing with the dissecting of every single detail, with the analyzing of every uttered word.
I know letting go.
It ain’t easy but it heals 
With hate, disappointment, and anger, I impose you must dispose (hehe) of both the destructive emotion and that person…especially of friends who shouldn’t be called such. People who have hurt you so deeply.
Swallow all you bitter pills.
Scratch out all your hatred and disappointment and anger.
As for love, ha, love. Always sought after, never totally really found with the exception of that one beautiful moment. It’ll come. Meantime, let go. Enjoy.
Love even more.

I know I have it.we do.sometimes I embrace it.The lifetime struggling question is : How to let it go? I hope you put some answers in your next blog:D
Ooh. I love this. It’s true and I can totally relate. I had to let go once and it hurt. I did over analyze every moment we had together just to figure out if love was really there and it gave me headaches! LOL.
Thank you for this write up. It made me feel.. well, relieved knowing that someone else knows how it [letting go] feels and could bravely put it in writing.

letting go of some “things” is really hard, how much more of letting go that person whom you loved most? no adjective can describe that feeling inside you…i like your blog and it seems it perfectly suits my situation right now[thanks]
nice topic huh! letting go is a long process… its not overnight you know..if you’re paving a right way of letting go dont ever turn your back by thinking of good times.. always think of the the bad times you have shared with that person. focus for something that will help you to move on and surely you’ll be succeeded!

You know. You might want to change your description about yourself (the “About Me:” part of your profile). You are clearly getting very introspective, getting to know how to use your emotions appropriately, and getting to choose the right ones to incorporate them into your blog and your writings. Do not be afraid of them. How does it feel to be expressive? It feels liberating. Right? There will be a lot of weird things that you will encounter as you slowly open yourself to many. One of which is overcoming the fear of humiliation… Personally, when you kept me from giving you any comments on your profile page, I thought it was your way of saying “no”… So, I considered as such… I am sorry if I surprised you a lot back then… I am sorry…

Claro wrote @ August 28th, 2008 at 2:01 am
You are at a stage where you are learning to familiarize yourself with your own voice, a voice that will separate you from this hypocritical world. You are slowly detaching yourself from a lot of pasts that most individuals cannot let go of. And by doing this, you are slowly learning to speak a new language. Like you said so yourself, Love. It can never be learned all at once. You have to go through two phases before you could ever learn to perfect it totally. You have to pass through two virtues. The first is faith which will take a great deal amount of moral reflection. The second is hope. This will help you push through barriers of doubt by correcting and turning them into positive solutions. If you would like to know some of their intricacies, you may read some of my blogs particularly “Stigmata and Exorcising”, “Ego or Truth”, and “You: Treads a Woman, undesirable or worthy”(Just the second path). Perfection usually is hard the first time. You will get used to it. Do you know why I am helping you? I like to see you finish what you have started. Once you have learned everything about love, no one can ever pull you down no matter how hard these hypocrites try. But if you choose to fall, let it be for the reason TO BE LOVED and not for anything else. This is the most beautiful suicide you could ever want. You will fully understand this the moment your soul is separated from your body. Think of this as theological separation of the body and soul. Do not be afraid. Just enjoy the ride. I promise you can get to be a real rocker when you’re done. Hehe! If you want, we can play Jedi Mind Tricks on each other, too. No Kidding!

Love is something universal to describe and it’s depends on someone understand and how the love will bring the successful element into their life….Love can bring a lot of happiness,peacefull.But love also can become opposite of it.It can be a sad and bad memory in our life which will become a traumatic…To believe someone even mr.right try to approach as well isn’t faster and as easy as the time…

Do not worry about it. You are simply trying to filter through your mortal priorities and your spiritual priorities. You are beginning to see a very fine line separating you from this world. The gap widens even more the moment you become more and more serious about your introspection. But do not disregard your legal studies. Take St. Thomas Moore’s example. Though he was in politics, his moral priorities are more important to him than his sovereign’s command. Do not be a fan of books. Read from life itself. What you have read will enhance and influence your writings greatly. Be your own author. In time, you will write miracles.

You probably are wondering how you can beat death. It is all about embodying an ideal. You can only do this by continuous action and by continuous pursuit of a particular moral goal. You can see the basics in my blog “Examination Questions”. You have to be forceful as you decide while you give a very distinct yet equivalent risk. If you want to become an ideal, you have to examine everything about it, both its negative and positive effects (always favor the positive). The moment you are ready to own it and become, your wanting to die for it will nullify the effects of death and you will be its embodiment. There are a lot of ideals. One, after conquering it, becomes heavier than the other. All of them you can only attain through both ACTION and INTROSPECTION. You can learn more about morality and virtue through both these deeds than you could ever learn by reading books. Do what I did. I gave-up my lifetime and I became something that a lot of people fear. I became a real impossibility. Wanna beat the Hell out of death? Do it anime style para cool ba. Haha!

Love is all about living without the things that you cannot live without. In your case, you are getting to know and to understand exactly what these things are. As you clearly put, “Let go!” If you cannot live without credibility, learn to live without it. If you cannot live without respect, learn to live without it. If you cannot live without success and popularity, learn to live without them. If you cannot live without those you love, learn to live without them. If you cannot live without the comfort of consolation and peace, learn to live without them and make others worthy of these. If you still have hesitation, learn to live without it. This is how you can protect others, by letting them go. Let them find their place and trust that they will do the right thing no matter what. And through your actions, you will learn the value of humility. A fair warning… You may be surrounded by many but you have to bear the pain of being alone for to let go is to be alone. Alone for the reason that you will become much more than you could ever be. A lot of people pray for a lot of reasons and most of them can actually do well to accomplish. Pray. Be a living prayer. Do what you must to remove the obstacles of your pain. Forgive. Forgive yourself. Forgive yourself so you can easily forgive those who have wronged you and others. Forgive more than you ever forgave before for to love is to forgive. Become an embodiment of this perfection.

It is okay, Marga. I feed on people’s condemnations everyday from the very moment I wake-up to the very moment I close my eyes. Trivial matters cannot bother me in any way. Like I said, “to let go is to be alone.” I can sleep soundly even though I know of their futile plans. At least, they are giving me reasons to laugh. Trip lang ba! Haha!

Children are the best critics when it comes to love. It is a simple yet a peaceful sight to see them enjoy their innocent lives. They play. They cry. But they stay as they are… as children. Although most of those who are included in my account consider me as not their usual joe, these children know that I am doing the right thing. Have this simple test. Sit or stand still. Do not invite them to come to you. They will come to you at their own time just like a bird or a butterfly that wants to get close to their own kind. They will come to you when you are peacefully comfortable with yourself. They will come to you when you have loved truly.

Letting go is really one hardest thing to do but we have to think and take consideration for others and sacrifice ourselves (if you are not selfish hehehe). Let go and love again….Time heal wounds you know even leaving scars on it, just give time and when you get over it, i’m pretty sure you will forget and be happy again just focus NOW and FUTURE. Its not yet the end of time . As my moms motto, dont worry be happy. Take these example; three weeks ago, my alaga in taiwan whom i cared, and loved for 2years accidentally fallen from the 9th fl. And died after 6hours of struggling for his life. (my former employer just called to let me know abt. it considering me as part of the family)just recently, my former employer said he regret losing a beloved child but he have to let go even it hurts deeply bec he is still an innocent child but cant do anything to hinder God’s plan. He has a purpose, greater plan, to make people change for the better. I console him and said learn to accept what Gods’ challlenge has given to him and you know what he replied to me?… Yes i know letting go is easy to let go if in return there is a replacement. Her wife is pregnant now and see how God works!!! He works in His mysterious ways….

it is true dear, we should let it go of the past, we live now and that’s why it is called present. otherwise new blessings and hope will not be able to enter your life . Let me quote a couple of utterances from the book entitled ” fight like a tiger and win like a champion ” If life were a game, then an old saying would be enough to enlighten us. The saying goes like this, “Life is a game, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose.” For a true champion, and for those who want to conquer themselves in order to get to the top of success, this saying doesn’t have proper wordings. For them, this saying sounds much better like this, “Life is a game, sometimes you win, sometimes you LEARN.” It means if you want to be successful in this life, you must see every failure in a positive sense. You must know that a failure and challenge will always come along the journey to success. So, get ready to face them with smile, and understand that failure must come before success. Never expect that life gets easier, but pray that you are getting stronger in facing any difficulties. When life gets tough, we must get tougher.

Baby Walk
Our journey starts when we were born as a small and pure baby. A baby has been given a positive strength by God to keep on trying and arising after each failure. In his monumental book Dare to Fail, Billy P.S. Lim wrote that a survey shows that a baby needs to fall down—and—get up approximately 240 times when he is about to be able to walk. Do you think, when a baby falls down, is he going to blame his parents for not guiding him, or the slippery floor? Of course not, babies have not developed such intelligence. They seem to enjoy this process. They don’t think long before they decide to get up again. They smile and try to walk, fall down, get up again and walk again. This is the process that they go through How long are they going to do that? UNTIL THEY CAN WALK. Can you imagine if a baby gives up after trying for 200 times? What if he is upset and never wants to learn to walk again? You can guess it; he won’t be able to walk for the rest of his life. Learn from babies. Even they face more failures; they will work hard to walk. They have no choices if they want to walk.
God has taught us from the very beginning that failure is the key and road to success. Do you agree that we have more enthusiasm than animals? Do you think a cat can always catch a mouse? Of course not. After failing five times, will the cat quit and say to himself that he is a useless cat? Once again, no. He becomes more furious to get what he wants. The idea of giving up never appears in his mind. Giving up means dying in hunger. How about a mother bird? When she flies out looking for food for her children, can she come back empty-handed and tell their children that they had better fast that day? I am absolutely sure, no. She will fly out from the nest with strong will and determination not to come back unless she gets food for her children. How about us when we face failures. Can we learn from babies, a cat, and mother bird? If we can, it means we must rise every time we fall. How many times? UNTIL WE SUCCEED. Every time you meet failures, shout enthusiastically, “I am getting closer to success!!!”

” wHEN IS THE RIGHT TIME TO LET GO? When u find yourself luring of your own selfishness, coz you did not show how much you loves the person, or even give a damn time, to the person , to show how much he loves you…
Don’t let go, fight for your love, don’t let the TRUE LOVE pass you bye…..maybe it will not come again. ” Kaw din tatanda kang dalaga….”

nice one.
can totally relate.
i’ve been having troubles of letting things go.. it’s not someone or maybe something like it…but yeah what i find quite interesting about letting go is the fact that when you finally do.. you can either be bitter or better..but the latter sounds..better… one can be bitter for a while or maybe for a lil longer while but it’s a choice you made..you can always make the best of friends with misery or live life the best way you can…and just let go..
read me…
Basis of Assurance
The assurance of eternal salvation is based only on the promise God makes in His Word that everyone who trusts in Jesus Christ alone possesses eternal life (John 5:24; I John 5:9-13). Good works, which can and should follow regeneration, are not necessary to a firm assurance of eternal life even though they may have a secondary, confirmatory value (Eph. 2:10; Titus 3:8).
Rests on the Word of God (John 1:12), the witness of the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:16), keeping God’s Word (I John 2:5), walking like Christ (I John 2:6), not loving the world (I John 2:15), purification (I John 3:3), love for the brethren (I John 3:14), true love (I John 3:18-19), answered prayer (I John 3:22), overcoming the world (I John 5:4).
A man once came to D. L. Moody and said he was worried because he didn’t feel saved. Moody asked, “Was Noah safe in the ark?” “Certainly he was,” the man replied. “Well, what made him safe, his feeling or the ark?” The inquirer got the point. “How foolish I’ve been!” he said. “It is not my feeling; it is Christ who saves!” - D.J.D
Eph.2:8-9
Regarding salvation and assurance, there are three groups of people:
1. those who are secure but not sure;
-are conscientious believers in Christ who are saved but lack assurance.
2. those who are “sure” but not secure;
-are professing Christians who say, “Even though I’m living in sin, I’ll make it. After all, ‘once saved, always saved!’“
3. those who are secure and sure
-are born-again believers who enjoy a warm, secure relationship with Christ each day.
The objective basis of our salvation is the finished work of God’s Son on the cross. The subjective basis for our assurance is our believing the truth about Christ (I John 2:2,4; 2:15; 5:1), loving the brethren (I John 3:14, 18, 19, 4:7-8), and obeying Christ’s commandments (I John 2:3-5).

Scratch That
Conversations these past few days with my friends have made me want to write my take on letting go.
Letting go:
Breathing deeply and letting it all out. Heaving a sigh. Putting all the “bad” out in the air without a care.
And I guess it starts with acknowledging that you aren’t completely over– Love. Hate. Disappointment. Anger. Pick your poison. I think these are the hardest emotions or states of thought to let go of because of their gravity and capacity to move you and even to change you. But sometimes all these emotions are at the point of consuming you and taking over your life to the point that even your perspectives are governed by these volatile emotions.
Given, we’ve all had our share of that word Love. In the words of Neil Gaiman, it takes hostages. And maybe we’re all suckers for love. After all, movies, books, songs, and topics of conversation revolve around love love love.
And we aren’t sick of it(c’mon admit it!) . Because we still believe in it. We aren’t as jaded or as cynical as we think we are. We’re just afraid it’ll surprise us and render us vulnerable. But isn’t that what makes us giddy? What makes life exciting? Makes you glow? We’re scared because if it comes we trouble over how to keep it. Never really appreciating when it’s there. And when we lose it. That’s where bitterness stems. Sometimes we’re even so poor at recognizing it.
But what hurts the most, I guess, is when you know you have it. You know it’s undeniably there. And real. But you have to let go.
Who knows why?
Time?
Effort?
Someone else?
Who knows!
But one thing’s certain. Let go! (Ok, I know, easier said than done hehe but I trust you’d know ;p) Because you know, YOU aren’t getting anywhere hoping and waiting. Because the more you wait and hope, the more it gets agonizing with the dissecting of every single detail, with the analyzing of every uttered word.
I know letting go.
It ain’t easy but it heals
With hate, disappointment, and anger, I impose you must dispose (hehe) of both the destructive emotion and that person…especially of friends who shouldn’t be called such. People who have hurt you so deeply.
Swallow all you bitter pills.
Scratch out all your hatred and disappointment and anger.
As for love, ha, love. Always sought after, never totally really found with the exception of that one beautiful moment. It’ll come. Meantime, let go. Enjoy.
Love even more.

You know. You might want to change your description about yourself (the “About Me:” part of your profile). You are clearly getting very introspective, getting to know how to use your emotions appropriately, and getting to choose the right ones to incorporate them into your blog and your writings. Do not be afraid of them. How does it feel to be expressive? It feels liberating. Right? There will be a lot of weird things that you will encounter as you slowly open yourself to many. One of which is overcoming the fear of humiliation… Personally, when you kept me from giving you any comments on your profile page, I thought it was your way of saying “no”… So, I considered as such… I am sorry if I surprised you a lot back then… I am sorry…

You are at a stage where you are learning to familiarize yourself with your own voice, a voice that will separate you from this hypocritical world. You are slowly detaching yourself from a lot of pasts that most individuals cannot let go of. And by doing this, you are slowly learning to speak a new language. Like you said so yourself, Love. It can never be learned all at once. You have to go through two phases before you could ever learn to perfect it totally. You have to pass through two virtues. The first is faith which will take a great deal amount of moral reflection. The second is hope. This will help you push through barriers of doubt by correcting and turning them into positive solutions. If you would like to know some of their intricacies, you may read some of my blogs particularly “Stigmata and Exorcising”, “Ego or Truth”, and “You: Treads a Woman, undesirable or worthy”(Just the second path). Perfection usually is hard the first time. You will get used to it. Do you know why I am helping you? I like to see you finish what you have started. Once you have learned everything about love, no one can ever pull you down no matter how hard these hypocrites try. But if you choose to fall, let it be for the reason TO BE LOVED and not for anything else. This is the most beautiful suicide you could ever want. You will fully understand this the moment your soul is separated from your body. Think of this as theological separation of the body and soul. Do not be afraid. Just enjoy the ride. I promise you can get to be a real rocker when you’re done. Hehe! If you want, we can play Jedi Mind Tricks on each other, too. No Kidding! 29. aini Says:

Love is something universal to describe and it’s depends on someone understand and how the love will bring the successful element into their life….Love can bring a lot of happiness,peacefull.But love also can become opposite of it.It can be a sad and bad memory in our life which will become a traumatic…To believe someone even mr.right try to approach as well isn’t faster and as easy as the time…

Do not worry about it. You are simply trying to filter through your mortal priorities and your spiritual priorities. You are beginning to see a very fine line separating you from this world. The gap widens even more the moment you become more and more serious about your introspection. But do not disregard your legal studies. Take St. Thomas Moore’s example. Though he was in politics, his moral priorities are more important to him than his sovereign’s command. Do not be a fan of books. Read from life itself. What you have read will enhance and influence your writings greatly. Be your own author. In time, you will write miracles. 34. Haz Says:

You probably are wondering how you can beat death. It is all about embodying an ideal. You can only do this by continuous action and by continuous pursuit of a particular moral goal. You can see the basics in my blog “Examination Questions”. You have to be forceful as you decide while you give a very distinct yet equivalent risk. If you want to become an ideal, you have to examine everything about it, both its negative and positive effects (always favor the positive). The moment you are ready to own it and become, your wanting to die for it will nullify the effects of death and you will be its embodiment. There are a lot of ideals. One, after conquering it, becomes heavier than the other. All of them you can only attain through both ACTION and INTROSPECTION. You can learn more about morality and virtue through both these deeds than you could ever learn by reading books. Do what I did. I gave-up my lifetime and I became something that a lot of people fear. I became a real impossibility. Wanna beat the Hell out of death? Do it anime style para cool ba. Haha! 36. Claro Says:

Love is all about living without the things that you cannot live without. In your case, you are getting to know and to understand exactly what these things are. As you clearly put, “Let go!” If you cannot live without credibility, learn to live without it. If you cannot live without respect, learn to live without it. If you cannot live without success and popularity, learn to live without them. If you cannot live without those you love, learn to live without them. If you cannot live without the comfort of consolation and peace, learn to live without them and make others worthy of these. If you still have hesitation, learn to live without it. This is how you can protect others, by letting them go. Let them find their place and trust that they will do the right thing no matter what. And through your actions, you will learn the value of humility. A fair warning… You may be surrounded by many but you have to bear the pain of being alone for to let go is to be alone. Alone for the reason that you will become much more than you could ever be. A lot of people pray for a lot of reasons and most of them can actually do well to accomplish. Pray. Be a living prayer. Do what you must to remove the obstacles of your pain. Forgive. Forgive yourself. Forgive yourself so you can easily forgive those who have wronged you and others. Forgive more than you ever forgave before for to love is to forgive. Become an embodiment of this perfection.

Children are the best critics when it comes to love. It is a simple yet a peaceful sight to see them enjoy their innocent lives. They play. They cry. But they stay as they are… as children. Although most of those who are included in my account consider me as not their usual joe, these children know that I am doing the right thing. Have this simple test. Sit or stand still. Do not invite them to come to you. They will come to you at their own time just like a bird or a butterfly that wants to get close to their own kind. They will come to you when you are peacefully comfortable with yourself. They will come to you when you have loved truly.

Letting go is really one hardest thing to do but we have to think and take consideration for others and sacrifice ourselves (if you are not selfish hehehe). Let go and love again….Time heal wounds you know even leaving scars on it, just give time and when you get over it, i’m pretty sure you will forget and be happy again just focus NOW and FUTURE. Its not yet the end of time . As my moms motto, dont worry be happy. Take these example; three weeks ago, my alaga in taiwan whom i cared, and loved for 2years accidentally fallen from the 9th fl. And died after 6hours of struggling for his life. (my former employer just called to let me know abt. it considering me as part of the family)just recently, my former employer said he regret losing a beloved child but he have to let go even it hurts deeply bec he is still an innocent child but cant do anything to hinder God’s plan. He has a purpose, greater plan, to make people change for the better. I console him and said learn to accept what Gods’ challlenge has given to him and you know what he replied to me?… Yes i know letting go is easy to let go if in return there is a replacement. Her wife is pregnant now and see how God works!!! He works in His mysterious ways….

There is a must in these letting go phase, that when you said those words there should always be something you need to carry on in return. a thing that will be always part of you, i wont say what specifics it is by its name but it will be something positive when you’re faced yet again by the pains someone will cause you. you were molded to be better when you face this demons, just don’t forget to look back at lessons you’ve learned.

Oktober 1st, 2008 at 2:09 am
it is true dear, we should let it go of the past, we live now and that’s why it is called present. otherwise new blessings and hope will not be able to enter your life . Let me quote a couple of utterances from the book entitled ” fight like a tiger and win like a champion ” If life were a game, then an old saying would be enough to enlighten us. The saying goes like this, “Life is a game, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose.” For a true champion, and for those who want to conquer themselves in order to get to the top of success, this saying doesn’t have proper wordings. For them, this saying sounds much better like this, “Life is a game, sometimes you win, sometimes you LEARN.” It means if you want to be successful in this life, you must see every failure in a positive sense. You must know that a failure and challenge will always come along the journey to success. So, get ready to face them with smile, and understand that failure must come before success. Never expect that life gets easier, but pray that you are getting stronger in facing any difficulties. When life gets tough, we must get tougher.

F A I L U R E
Failure does not mean I am a failure;
It does mean I am not yet successful.
Failure does not mean I have not accomplished anything;
It does mean I have learned something.
Failure does not mean I have been a fool;
It does mean I have enough faith of experiment.
Failure does not mean I have disgraced;
It does mean I have dared to try.
Failure does not mean I don’t have it;
It does mean I have something to do in different way.
Failure does not mean I am an inferior;
It does mean I am not perfect.
Failure does not mean I have wasted my life;
It does mean that I have an excuse to start over.

Baby Walk
Our journey starts when we were born as a small and pure baby. A baby has been given a positive strength by God to keep on trying and arising after each failure. In his monumental book Dare to Fail, Billy P.S. Lim wrote that a survey shows that a baby needs to fall down—and—get up approximately 240 times when he is about to be able to walk. Do you think, when a baby falls down, is he going to blame his parents for not guiding him, or the slippery floor? Of course not, babies have not developed such intelligence. They seem to enjoy this process. They don’t think long before they decide to get up again. They smile and try to walk, fall down, get up again and walk again. This is the process that they go through How long are they going to do that? UNTIL THEY CAN WALK. Can you imagine if a baby gives up after trying for 200 times? What if he is upset and never wants to learn to walk again? You can guess it; he won’t be able to walk for the rest of his life. Learn from babies. Even they face more failures; they will work hard to walk. They have no choices if they want to walk.
God has taught us from the very beginning that failure is the key and road to success. Do you agree that we have more enthusiasm than animals? Do you think a cat can always catch a mouse? Of course not. After failing five times, will the cat quit and say to himself that he is a useless cat? Once again, no. He becomes more furious to get what he wants. The idea of giving up never appears in his mind. Giving up means dying in hunger. How about a mother bird? When she flies out looking for food for her children, can she come back empty-handed and tell their children that they had better fast that day? I am absolutely sure, no. She will fly out from the nest with strong will and determination not to come back unless she gets food for her children. How about us when we face failures. Can we learn from babies, a cat, and mother bird? If we can, it means we must rise every time we fall. How many times? UNTIL WE SUCCEED. Every time you meet failures, shout enthusiastically, “I am getting closer to success!!!”

letting go… hmmmmm…… it takes a lot of courage to say, but. are you sure is that easy to do it..? yah, ur right. Just scratch it, and its all gone. scratch it ! till u bleed, scratch it ! till it MARKS!
” wHEN IS THE RIGHT TIME TO LET GO? When u find yourself luring of your own selfishness, coz you did not show how much you loves the person, or even give a damn time, to the person , to show how much he loves you…
Don’t let go, fight for your love, don’t let the TRUE LOVE pass you bye…..maybe it will not come again. ” Kaw din tatanda kang dalaga….”
LET GO… free yourself, let your heart flew to the MISTERY OF LOVE….

i’ve been having troubles of letting things go.. it’s not someone or maybe something like it…but yeah what i find quite interesting about letting go is the fact that when you finally do.. you can either be bitter or better..but the latter sounds..better… one can be bitter for a while or maybe for a lil longer while but it’s a choice you made..you can always make the best of friends with misery or live life the best way you can…and just let go.. 109. dennispanganiban Says:

read me…
Basis of Assurance
The assurance of eternal salvation is based only on the promise God makes in His Word that everyone who trusts in Jesus Christ alone possesses eternal life (John 5:24; I John 5:9-13). Good works, which can and should follow regeneration, are not necessary to a firm assurance of eternal life even though they may have a secondary, confirmatory value (Eph. 2:10; Titus 3:8).
Rests on the Word of God (John 1:12), the witness of the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:16), keeping God’s Word (I John 2:5), walking like Christ (I John 2:6), not loving the world (I John 2:15), purification (I John 3:3), love for the brethren (I John 3:14), true love (I John 3:18-19), answered prayer (I John 3:22), overcoming the world (I John 5:4).
A man once came to D. L. Moody and said he was worried because he didn’t feel saved. Moody asked, “Was Noah safe in the ark?” “Certainly he was,” the man replied. “Well, what made him safe, his feeling or the ark?” The inquirer got the point. “How foolish I’ve been!” he said. “It is not my feeling; it is Christ who saves!” - D.J.D
Eph.2:8-9
Regarding salvation and assurance, there are three groups of people:
1. those who are secure but not sure;
-are conscientious believers in Christ who are saved but lack assurance.
2. those who are “sure” but not secure;
-are professing Christians who say, “Even though I’m living in sin, I’ll make it. After all, ‘once saved, always saved!’“
3. those who are secure and sure
-are born-again believers who enjoy a warm, secure relationship with Christ each day.
The objective basis of our salvation is the finished work of God’s Son on the cross. The subjective basis for our assurance is our believing the truth about Christ (I John 2:2,4; 2:15; 5:1), loving the brethren (I John 3:14, 18, 19, 4:7-8), and obeying Christ’s commandments (I John 2:3-5).

ok
i relly don’t believe in letting go..cause if you truly love the person, then fight for your love. Why would you allow your self to be enveloped with tears on someone you will let go when in fact you still are in love with the person? You must let go if you already fought the battle,nonetheless fight for what you know is worth fighting for..

once ive read
that if you love someone
dont let them go
but is it so?
but what if
they want to be freed
from heartaches you caused
misery you sowed
wouldn’t it be better
if we let them be?
to find their happiness
from the arms of someone else?
yes it is hard
in fact it is sad
to wish them good luck
yet wishing they’d come back
this one’s nice! keep up..
i love people who loves me i hate people who hates me

yeah your right!!!! it’s easier said than done…. indeed it’s not that easy to let go. I just can’t let go of him right now because I’m still hoping (though i really don’t know what we really have right now… ) It’s just too complicated… 
The attraction is too strong but yet we are just “friends”. But we care for each other. But only one of us is afraid… to really show how one’s really feels… You think it’s worth keeping for???? Is it worth fighting for? Or LETTING GO is the best thing to do????
I’ve been watching this particular anime since I saw it at the Animax Channel. It kinda reminds me of three of my blogs. One you already know so familiarly and the other two are about singing and the choir. It’s funny because the opening theme bears some similarity to the second and the third while the closing theme is a combination of the first and the second. The blogs are “You: Treads a Woman, Undesirable or Worthy (Complete), “How Lovely” and “The Journey of a Choir (Simplified)”. This anime seems to be inspired by them. Let me know what you think. The title is “Nodame Cantabile”.

sabagay awtomatik naman ang ‘letting go’ anuman ang ating ’sitwasyon’ na kinasadlakan..
kapag nagalit tayo o anumang ‘destructive emotion’ na nararamdaman natin, natural may dahilan naman yan… na kailangan din naman ayusin…mahalaga lang angkop na desisyon, kapag binalewala din natin nga sanhi ng galit at pagkainis natin..baka abusuhin naman tayo at paulit ulit nlang ang pag abuso ng taong kinamumuhian natin… kaya nman kong tama ang magiging desisyon natin doon palang magkakaroon ng ‘letting go’ .. doon palang natin tuluyang ma SCRATCH sa ating ’system’ ang ‘virus’ na sumisira sa ating ‘peace of mind’..
ganunpaman,its a blessing’ na meron ka mga kaFRIENDSTER like Magrz na mahusay sa panulat..maski papano nakakatulong din .. maibsan ang mga hinanakit..hehehe
