Blog 5: Let It Go


Life is indeed a journey in which you could never go back. Those sceneries along the road as well as time fade away from our sight at an incredible speed. When we look back, we will always feel pity for certain things, for those we've lost. In my opinion, holding a wise attitude to these things is the key to advance in our life journey

Though I have only been in this world for 19 years, there have already been enough things for me to feel sweet, to taste sorrow, and mostly, to regret for. The failure of doing poorly in National Entrance Examination, the improper behaviors which hurt my parents, the final separation of she and I, and countless other things are all the secret pains locked in the inner room of my heart. Every time I recall these memories, I could feel as if someone is squeezing my heart.  I always asked myself what made me so stupid to do such a ridiculous thing? Why i didn't know how to cherish? Why I let her go? There was a time when all of these existed as heavy burdens to me, which blocked my way forward.

I knew my attitude was wrong, but sometimes man just couldn't prevent his emotion from destroying his rational thoughts. However, after experiencing quite a lot of things, I think I am mature enough to handle it.

As the Chinese saying goes:"Things in the past are beyond redemption, yet we can pursue what is in the future", the most degage thing you can do is to leave a loud laughter for the Irreversible past, and hold your sight to the unpredictable future.    Now, I would still feel sorrow every time I think of things I lost in the past time, but I have gained enough courage to face it, to learn from it, to smile to it. Things lost are lost, so why we use the lost things to add worries into our minds. After all, the future is still in our hand!

So, why not let the past things past? Let it go. If they come to our mind, why not smile to them, chat with them, and then say goodbye to them. Maybe we cannot make those things lost to come back, but at least we can seize the things we will have tomorrow and leave less pity in our life road.

  1. Wow, from your blog, I can see that you are full of emotion. That’s very nice! (^_^) Besides, I cannot agree with you more on the idea of treating the past and the future. I like this sentence in your blog very much, “the most degage thing you can do is to leave a loud laughter for the irreversible past, and hold your sight to the unpredictable future.” Well, we cannot change the things that have happened; all we can do is to face the future. Therefore, I believe that future is more important than past. We should always look forward to the future and just let the past go.

  2. Actually, I can know your feelings. Recalling my past time, I had to admit that I did leave much regret. I deeply hurt a girl, because I thought we were still too young to tolerate the pain and sorrow generated by love. I let my parents down, because I never studied hard in my junior school and failed in the senior school entrance test. I disappointed myself, because I did not exert all my capacity in the college entrance examination. However, we cannot live in our memory. What we should do is to cherish everyday and live in the present moment. I know it is difficult to adjust our mentality, since whenever these things flash through our minds, we may have a feeling that the hearts are broken again. We should summon up our courage to overcome them. What is your biggest enemy? The answer is “you”. I think you do not want to be bothered by such meaningless issues anymore. Then, why not try to forget them and treasure every moment you have now. Today is a good day to change! When today becomes yesterday, if we can proudly say that, “I do not feel regretful about yesterday!” I think we have found the true meaning of the life.

  3. So this is what you have learned from the past, isn't it? I feel happy for you that you can get through it and know something.When people get stuck in the past, they do not realize, in their lives ,they could do things which are greater than what they are doing now. I have been in this situation before.Looking back now, I realize some bigger dreams in mind, but I did not know it at fifteen. I wish I could go back and tell myself what I have known now. I wish I could tell myself that time can heal almost everything and I might find who I am supposed to be. But I cannot. This is the real life. Everytime I think I know something, there is something else right in the corner. I know nothing compared to what I am going to know oneday.That is to say, I never know everything. I am sorry my comment may be a little confusing and may go too far from your topic.
