The Japanese were hurriedly crossing the street in Shibuya, Tokyo when Han (Sung Kang) told Sean (Lucas Black), "Life's simple. You make decisions and you don't look back."
You can see that scene in the movie, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. No, you don't need to race a 10-second car to fasten the process of getting over a breakup. But his words will help you mend your broken heart in easier and wiser ways. The two sentences may sound very simple but its deeper meaning can be elaborated by the phrases listed below.
Past is past.
When you recall the moments in your childhood years, there must be a time that you wish you handled the situation otherwise. But since that decision belongs to that moment, only the fictional time machine can help you fix it. The same thing goes with your breakup. When you opted to end the relationship, it became part of your past. Even if you wail hard or get wasted, the circumstance is already irreversible.
Triumph in the struggle.
The battle between you and your emotions will come naturally after the separation. Anguish is hard to manage so it's unsurprising that you'll be caught unprepared and draw back at the start. But after awhile, when you're called to make a stand, you'll understand yourself better through your behavior under this difficult circumstance. If you're defeated, you go to an institution of remorseful people. If you're successful, you're privilege to do the next phrase.
Shout "Carpe Diem".
In Latin, "carpe diem" means "enjoy the present". After letting go of the past, live your life constructively. Take a bicycle ride, use a fish rod or strike the owling pins. Look up to Manny Pacquiao through boxing lessons or Mark Zuckerberg through developing your own social network site. Eat, pray and take photos. Ideas to smoothen the process of getting over a breakup gush forth. The only question is, "Where will you start?"
Look right and left.
When your ex shut the door, it's alright to open it back again. Don't expect him or her to come back but certainly, people around you will check you out. Spend time with your family and friends and get strength from their love and care. Isn't it consoling to know they'll always be there for you? Lovers arrive and leave but they will always be two steps behind you, no matter where you go.
Consider the future.
In what way? The second rule of Stephen Covey is, "Begin with an end in mind." Do you imagine yourself holding hands with another lover? Can you visualize the setting when your ex and his or her new lover walk past you but the pain's totally gone? That's great! Your goals will influence your thoughts and behavior.
When you're finished getting over a breakup, find hope in love again. As a song says, "It's the lover not the love who broke your heart last night. It's the lover not the dream that didn't work out right." If you just consider your heartbreaking experience as your teacher, your mistakes will never reoccur in the future.
