4| What you will learn after breaking up

After Alan had left, Mia still went to work on the road Alan loved, cooked his favorite food, watched his favorite TV shows, and sometimes visited the coffee shop they first met. Everything seems unchanged, the only thing is Alan was not there anymore; her heart died within her.

On young days, everyone wishes to have perfect love, love, promise the future together, and dream about their own house with their lovely children. However, the reality is always harsh; they meet, love, and then break up. Alan could be crazy for her then he could also be crazy for another girl or another thing. It took Mia so much time to accept the truth and to move on. Her heart needs more time to accept what her mind already knows.

Breaking up doesn’t mean Mia loses everything. On the other hand, she felt grateful for what Alan brought to her life with feeling, emotion, and this breaking-up lesson as well.

Many people said it was so regrettable they parted but Mia wanted to say thank you and sorry Alan. Thank Alan for bringing her great days, memorable moments, and pure sentiments. Sorry, Alan because such beautiful things could flash forever.

She hopes no matter where Alan is, he will be happy, that is enough. Alan becomes a part of her past that is worth memorizing. Memorizing is not to resend but to remind about a beautiful piece of her youth and about how he made her vibrated. Although the end of her love is not happy, love in this world is still worth being nurtured and appreciated.

Somebody told her if the truth was too painful or cruel, don’t remember or make her exhausted. If she chose to have peace in mind, she should put those pains in the past. Everything belonging to the past should be quiet.

The love that was everything to her ended, the sky was still so high and blue, people were still busy with their days and they still didn’t deny the value of love in life. Life is still like that, only Alan is not beside Mia anymore.

After all, she realizes, anything happens, she still has her parents who unconditionally love and support her, her best friends who are always by her sides, her dreams that are waiting for her efforts, and her hopes for fulfilled future life. She has no reason to lose herself and her values when so many great people and things are always there with her.

Mia started to take more care of herself in both physical and mental health. She looked for a new job to do what she liked, went to the gym to practice her physical health, read more books to find new inspirations, listened to her favorite playlist, visited her parents more, and sometimes hang out to meet friends or go shopping. She realized she missed so many interesting things for herself.

Time gradually relieved her pains, her life became more and more colorful and she didn’t remember how she suffered great misery after her love fell to pieces. Sometimes think about such memories, she suddenly smiled. She thought her sky was dark and she got nothing but then she still found her happiness, her smiles, and her true life.

Mia respects her present life without denying her past. She thanked that love with the lesson after breaking up, which makes her become a stronger and more mature version of herself.

Sometimes Mia is curious if Alan finds his true life meaning and a new girlfriend or not. She wishes no matter which sky Alan is under, he will find full happiness and satisfy with his present.

To the ones who are struggling with the reason for your break up, hopefully, you will soon have enough strength and courage to accept your present, to find yourself and things making you happy. Everyone, soon or later, has to face breaking up, saying goodbye to the lovers but that is not everything.

A door closes then another door will open and you have the right to choose the open door, to find true values, and make efforts for your better life. Hope you get some lessons from here, it is not only true for breaking up but also for all the failure to get over and to move on.
