Public Speaking Midterms

“Love does not keep a record of wrong,” the line I have mentioned is from 1 Corinthian 13 verse 5.

“Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth,” this line comes from 1 Corinthian 13 verse 6. Until when should you hold on?

When would you realize that you should move on?

Ladies and Gentlemen

Let us share with you some thoughts about holding on and moving on.

"The minute you think of giving up any relation, think of the reason why you held it so long "Every relationship has its own seesaw, it goes up and down and sometimes it was stacked and have a hard time going up. But who else will repair it? Remember that a seesaw will not work if there is only one using it. Holding on will never be easy unless you try.

“We feel that letting go is giving up, quitting, and a cowardly act. But as we grow older we are forced to change our way of thinking. We are forced to realize that letting go means accepting things that cannot be. It means maturing and moving on, no matter how hard you have to fight yourself to do so”

We hold on because we want to. We trust, we don’t lose hope, or we try to convince ourselves that we are not left alone. Relationship is not about giving up; it’s always about fighting for and against. Fighting for your love, and fighting against the feeling of fighting all over again. Not all the times we have to move on immediately.

We move on because we have to. Reasons could be broken trust, losing hope, or at times when you were left alone. Whatever could be the reason for it, we move on, because we need to carry on with our lives. We move on because we choose not to dwell in the past. Nightmares may happen, but it’s our choice to wake up from it. Not all the times we have to hold on for so long.

Again, we ask the same question

And we leave to you the answer,

Do you hold on even when things go wrong?

Or do you move on even when things can still be fixed?
