It Couldn’t Be, But It Was Worth It

“Life, circumstances separated us, but it was worth it. ..

I still remember your way of walking, of looking at me, how we laughed together over the silliest things … simply because you and I were happy.

Life, circumstances separated us but it was worth it … it was worth sharing confidences with you, hugs, kisses, wish …

Life, circumstances separated us but it was worth it …

Life gave us a gift, to know and love each other and I don’t need more. I do not want to nor am I going to regret saying What bad luck, I lost it! Fate took it from me! The simple fact that I have lived with you for a small part of my life is enough to make me feel lucky.

Life, circumstances separated us but it was worth it …

I’m not going to cry because you’re gone, you made me happy. You made me believe again in love, in respect, in complicity.

You made me believe again in the perfect combination of two imperfect beings. Although I would have liked to continue walking on your side. 

Although life swept you away like a strong hurricane and I never saw you again, I don’t care. Your memory will continue to live in me forever.

I may know other loves, I do not close myself. Life has the ability to surprise you without you realizing it. Also love may not knock on my door again … really who can know this?

But whatever happens, your sweet kisses, your tender words and your way of calming me down when I was most angry, will always have a place in my heart.

I may know other loves, I do not hide. Life can surprise me.

But whatever happened, the way you kissed my forehead and the socket of my eyes … how you took my hands and looked at them in that way that made me feel so special … how you lifted me into the air, while we felt that we were the owners of happiness, they will always have a place in my heart ”.

The power of memories

Memories are the essences of people, of our experiences and moments. They are part of our history and the journey of our lives.

Whether they are good or bad, they exert great power within us because in a matter of seconds they can make our skin crawl, draw a few tears or simply draw a smile.

As in the previous story, which despite being aware that it could not have been, we are left with the memory of what we experienced and what we felt. A memory feeds us, gives us strength.

Therefore, although that relationship did not continue due to whatever circumstances, you still have its memory, its essence, its stamp. And even if you take your life back, you will always have the memory of what it was. 

But be cautious and do not chain yourself more than recommended, because memories can also leave open wounds. Note that:

1. Having beautiful memories of people we have loved is good and positive. What we shouldn’t do is stay stuck in the past.

Life goes on and we have to continue being happy and opening our minds to new experiences and new people who can bring us happiness again.

2. Memories lived in an optimistic way benefit us and help us feel that life has given us a gift and that for this we should feel lucky.

In addition, you can always learn from experiences.

3. Memories are part of life. When these people are gone, they help us to have them close to us again for a little while.

We must relive them with joy and not with sad nostalgia. Stay with the best and learn from the worst.

4. We should not use memories to torment ourselves by feeling what we have lost. If we had no memories, our life would be empty.

We might have nothing from the past to be sorry for, but we wouldn’t have anything to be happy about either.

Memories are alive.

“When the silent night

awaken my feelings,

memories come to me

as on the wings of the wind.

Sweet memories some

others very sad by the way

but they are all memories

memories that I love them.

When they come, I feel them

and they beat my chest

I talk to them and they go straight

to look for the thoughts.

And there they talk for a while

of the time that is already gone

and they leave as they have come

but this time without hitting

so as not to disturb sleep

that has come to me.

“Only memories” – Julio Casati
