In life, you took steps to be the person you are now. It took you years to be the person you are in front of the mirror when you wake up in the morning and the inner aspect of that person is the person the remains inculcated in the minds of the people you are connected to your family and friends.

I do not really know the first step I made using my bipedal foot when I was a baby but one thing is for sure my parents were the happiest parents in the whole wide world during that very instance. Not that I am saying that some parents were not that happy when they see their baby struggle to take that step for the first time but my condition was different. My mother thought I had polio for reasons I still do not know. All I know is that I was sick and that explains everything. Since I'm taking a medical course in college, the topic of my "sickly" childhood was not being talked about maybe because I do not want to ask anymore or maybe I have piles of books to read about the pathophysiology of any sickness.

Now that I have grown up, I realized a step that also seemed so hard to be done. Call me cynical or pessimist but I know everyone who tried to value a person or a relationship, could relate on this thing MOVING ON. Moving on is really the hardest part in every relationship. I always put it in my mind that when you love, you risk. You risk your emotions on either getting hurt or spending the happiest moments in your life. You risk the time you should be with your family and friends just to spend moments with the person dear to you. You risk your priorities that could have been there to make you a better person. But no, you don't have to regret anything. As what I always tell my friends, we have to experience a bit of everything in life for us to be more mature. Maturity does not really come with age. It comes with how you deal with the experiences that you had been through and how you plan to deal with the future experiences that you may or you may not had been through.

There are just two persons involved in the moving on stage or in relationships per se and I am proud and evil to say that I had been in one of them in one way or another. The first is the person who loves more. The second is the person who loves less. I don't mean to generalize but in every relationship, there is always someone who loves more. And the story does not always end up that the one who loves less would realize the value of the one he loves and would turn out to be the one to love more as what
