What do you do when the most important person in your life moves on? It need not be anyone specific. It can be your best friend, your siblings or your companion. It could be anyone.

The first reaction always is that of the pain. Pain not because the person moved on but pain as you are so incapable of moving on. Pain not because you won’t have that person with you and no more memories to create with them, but pain as that special someone would not match up to anyone else.

That person moved out and opted for a life where you are not a part of it and so they will adjust to their new set of choices but you would be left to choose from something wherein you do not have any options available. Your choices are from leftovers. As we say “Beggars are not choosers”, you have invested so many emotions in the relation that you are practically left with nothing… And hence an apt situation for the thought.

The afterthought of pain is the emotion where you realize that now as you are left with no other option all you can do is compromise. I never choose the path.. The paths choose me for the journey. The journey which was taken by me but which was not decided by me. It was fate that decided and I played the pawn in the entire setup. Now when you realize that the only option left with you is to move on and make the most out of your life. One should always remember the promise which we make to ones self. Where you decide not to compromise and never to choose the second best but than the fate got you on the path where you never had any option, “Sometimes in life you don’t make choices, you just don have the chance.. The chance that you have is to accept the choices made by others.”

In such a situation all you can do is move on with a faith that life has atleast given you a second chance. You should just thank your lucky stars and leave the rest on fate.
