Shut the windows
and draw the blinds. Pull over the luggage and clear the pile of dusts on top. I
need the luggage to pack up some lovely memories. This house had seen many good
things too, can’t bear to leave them behind in a place with no occupants. Lovely
memories need me as much as I need them. It’s not fair to push away our good fellows
to the back line especially when all the punishment belongs to the wrong guy.
Don’t forget the
china set which given by a lovely friend. Reminds me of that special birthday
that I had years ago. That old bed sheet smells of something sad. Leave it at
the same place, they shouldn’t been drag along to the new bed. Oh my! I really need
to be careful when moving out those fragile stuff, they should be handled with
care. As for now, I only have them with me.
The contract had been drafted. Lawyers had
been hired. All I need is to pen down a signature and the house doesn’t belong
to me anymore. Now comes, the last ritual, the most awaited moment. I closed
the door and lock it for the last time. With a luggage on my hands and boxes on
the track, I bid the final adieu to my old life. Here I am now standing on my
doorstep, blowing goodbye kisses to the old keys and threw it away behind those
hills. Who needs the old key when the new home is waiting to embrace me with a
hug?
Goodbye my old life, you’ll be forgotten
but will never be missed. In either ways, you are at loss, not me. I have a new
life peeking me from the other sides, convincing me to dream and begging me to
move on. I felt wind brushing through my hair. It’s time to leave my past
behind, it’s too burdensome to carry it on to the future. Isn’t it better to be safe
than sorry? The past had taught me that
some mistakes are too costly to be repeated. Memories is what makes us who we are but when it starts to haunt
you, then it is best to be forgotten.
After all, we have only one life, why not
live it to the fullest?
interesting !

A very nice post that makes the reader feel the pain of leaving behind the past life and at the same time the happiness for a better tomorrow. It backs the idea of moving on though, but it's not only about that. A nice post.
ReplyDeleteThank you..leaving the past is a sad process but there's no other way ..
Deletevery interesting...i hope your new life as really great and may you live happily ever after :)
ReplyDeleteThank u,happily contended life I would say :)
DeleteYou inspire me. It takes a lot of substance in yourself to move on leaving the past behind and being confident for it to be forgotten and for it to be not missed.
ReplyDeleteYes, life is just once. And you're on the right path alright. All the good things came right in as soon as you let go off those old keys. Now good luck and shine, you! Beautiful and blessedness awaits you! <3
Thank you Im glad that my words inspire u...Life is once and this is time to shine :D
DeleteYuo're lucky to get the courage to move on, a lot of us ache to do it and never succeed. Sometimes we linger on to the past also, just because the present is not so attractive. Hmph.
ReplyDeleteI wish you all the luck, I am sure a blessed year awaits you. xx
Old memories still lingering on my thought but then I have moved on..Miss ya..and thank u :)
