The World Doesn't Stop Even When You're Gone

Because of You I Became Stronger

By: Azura Srikandi

  I am kind of girl who is always cheerful in my school. I always like to spread happiness and really like to laugh even just for a small joke. My life is fun because my life is filled with people I love and people who love me. I enjoy my life and I always hope that my happiness never endless.

  But apparently my happiness did not last long unlike my dreams. Ever since I let someone come into my life, everything has changed. I gave all my trust to him, but apparently I gave it to the wrong person.

 He left easily leaving me and breaking the trust I had given. My heart is broken, I do not know if there is still someone who can still be trusted? Because I am very afraid that this incident will happen again.

After he left me, I felt I was not me. I feel lost myself. Me, my friends and my family have all changed. Life goes on but all the joy and warmth that I often felt was no same. This is very hard for me and makes me almost give up. I realize that I can not do this anymore. Yes, I know I have to move on.

My friend said "I'm not really sure that you have a problem, because you still laugh and joke often" I answered loudly, "If you think I'm still the same girl, the girl who is always cheerful as you know then you're wrong. My laughter, my jokes and my happiness are not as warm as before. Nobody knows what I felt  and my suffering. So keep all your thoughts about me and do not think that I am okay".

I just realized that to return to myself was not easy. Back adjust everything, rearrange my life that I must live without him by my side again. I must keep trying to keep moving and end all this. And I now is the time for me to move on.

I looked at the clock and determined that from now on I would take what was truly mine. All laughter, jokes and also fun. There will be no more tears and no more regrets. Because this girl has gone to change herself.

  Not change to who I was, but to become a stronger and wiser girl. To be a girl who made everything happen to her by forgetting her bad side and making her a good side for lessons in the future. Now this girl is growing up by turning her bad memories into a very valuable lesson in her life.
