and the best thing to do when you find something good is to enjoy each day it is with you and never let anyone take that happiness away...
maybe some things are worth celebrating... some are worth keeping... some are to be thrown away, others buried and some forgotten. but one thing is certain and sure to happen... no matter how beautiful, no matter how grand, how wonderful the feeling, how perfect it may seem... they will all come to an end.
whichever way you like it and however you try to stop it, some things - good things will end... why? because there are only two permanent things in this world - God and change. all the others are temporary. they will end and there's no way to stop the endings.
i sound like a hopeless gal in the middle of nowhere trying to find reason why good things end. i'm pretty sure somebody would feel the same way... but i don't want to be hopeless. in fact, i'm very hope-filled. i hope that after the good things end, better things will come and then after they end as well, the best things will come. but it doesn't usually operate that way. and however painful it becomes, reality hits, strikes and bites you... and then the tears, the gripping pain, the sleepless nights... the what ifs and if onlys... and if you're not standing on solid ground, on a strong foundation, you will cry and there will be no end to your pain...
how does one really cope up with the pain of good things ending? how does one go from letting go to moving on? only in this... to trust in the Lord that He will bring an end to whatever pain or hurt the ending has brought upon you... the Psalmist says, "I'm still confident of this, I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living." there is hope in the devastating effect of endings... a hope that every ending is a door to another beginning and the cycle goes on and on... and hope remains... kindling the heart with warmth and anticipation of other good things in store in the future...
