關於過去的事就藏心底

=O entry title in asian !! lol.

"hide the things from the past in the bottom of your heart"
回到過去 <3 one of my favourite songs in the world
it's filled with meaningful lyrics.. in my opinion anyway.
anyway
that line kind of speaks to me.
It's like... you have to accept things, and move on. You wont forget it, you'll still think of it. But you 're not keeping it constantly on the surface of your consciousness or in your thoughts. Which... makes things a little less unbearable. And i suppose if you keep it at the bottom of your heart, it's like holding something - a memory maybe - dear. It's close to you, it's precious.

"you're still a part of everything i do, you're on my heart just like tattoo"
i like that song also (Jordin Sparks - tattoo)
Just because you get over something (or someone) doesnt mean they havent affect your life in some way. They have. They've changed you. Becasue you've learnt from them, understood the world a little more, understood yourself a little more.

我知道放開手但不知到怎麼忘掉
"I know i have to let go but I dont know how to forget"
song by 五月天 (<3 !!! )  called 而我知道
this line can be translated a little differently but my translation is kind of how i see the line..
I dont know how to forget, but I know that everything eventually fades as time passes. And I know that you have to trust your own judgement. When you know that you have to let go, you should. Forgetting takes time. But it's not impossible. Time changes things? Maybe. But i think you have to allow it to change allow yourself, your emotions, your mood to change.

快樂是選擇
"happiness is a choice"
開始懂了 by 孫燕姿
You make the choice of whether you want to be happy or not. I know that sometimes things just get you down. It happens to me. always. But (I'm not gonna say "ohh you gotta get back up") I think people are allowed to feel unhappy, to bitch to complain. It's just.... you can either choose to continue being down or you can cheer yourself up with things you know will make you happy. For example, i'm happy when i spend time with friends, forget about what bothers me, laugh with them, talk animatedly with them. If i want to make myself happy, i do these things. That's what i mean about choosing to be happy. You cant stop things from getting you down and you cant stop yourself from sad. But you can choose to feel sorry for yourself or you can choose to cheer yourself up, make yourself happy. I know that sometimes that can seem superficial and you'll still feel sad when you're alone... but it's not this way. if you choose to move on, you will eventually be able to.

可是我有時候寧願選擇留戀不放手
"but sometimes I would rather choose to hold on  and not let go"
紅豆 by 方大同 (originally by 王菲) again, not the best translation.
I know people often feel this way. I often feel this way. but life moves forward. and times moves forward. I like staying the the past, i find it hard to let go. haha.. and i like this line because it pretty much is my philosophy most of the time.. HOWEVER.

有沒有那麼一種永遠 永遠不改變
"is there some kind of forever that will never change"
如煙 by 五月天
the answer to that question is no. unless you want to live in a fantasy world of memory. Things will never stay the same. so I know i cant choose to hold on and never let go. I have to let go.
But even so
未來依舊有你的回憶
"In the future i'll still alwyas have a memory of you"
from 回到過去 again. lol.

NOTES:
"you" is used as a general term. lol.
my translating skills are fail.

meh i'm not very meaningful.
holy shit i havent written anything this long in awhile.
