Giving up or moving on

There comes a time in our lives where bad things happen that can lead to a struggle, a rock on the road. It is where we make the tough decisions.

It’s the line we create to a clearer understanding, the one moment where we realise the purpose to each of our lives. The moment we can either choose to cry about what we have lost over burnt bacon or we can stand up brush it off and start living. Sometimes that’s all we need, a slap in the face of reality because when we forget how to function we forget much more then that.

We forget the people around us the ones who also struggle, we forget about time - the fact that we waste so much of it. Most importantly we forget that one choice doesn’t seal the deal it doesn’t mean it’s a final choice it just means that we have time to decide.

To give up means to let go and for that to happen we have to be able to move on because even if we don’t, time doesn’t stop for us it simply carries on.

“You must make a decision that you are going to move on. It wont happen automatically. You will have to rise up and say, ‘I don’t care how hard this is, I don’t care how disappointed I am, I’m not going to let this get the best of me. I’m moving on with my life.”
