The pursuit of Happiness...

Most of us have kissed another person at one point of time or another. And irrespective of whose kissing whom, each kiss seems to carry a message all its own. It could be from a girlfriend to convey her love, from a mother to depict care or from a brother to express a sense of security. But each kiss carries a common underlining desire, a desire to connect to another human being.
The desire seems to manifest itself profoundly when the pair is involved romantically. But what happens when things don't seem to work out between them (because of any reason) and a break-up is inevitable. What follows is a period of intense emotional pain and emptiness, to which different people respond in different ways. Some enters into a state of denial, some just move on. I guess latter ones have a better "approach". Former ones keep holding on to the "good old memories", for someone who doesn't even bothers to care, and eventually begin spending a large period of time being depressed (I've spent more than 5 months myself).
A writer once said, "Sometimes you have to let go of something, to realize whether it was worth holding on to.". I guess, what I'm trying to say is that, yes although their have been heart aches, but its not the end of the world. Sooner or later we HAVE to move on. We have to acknowledge the fact that it wasn't worth holding on to, and move on. I've learnt it the hard way, I just hope that you done.
