Reflecting from a movie

"I know you two went through a lot.. but.. so much have happened.. sometimes as hard as it is, you have to let go" by Martha Kent - Smallville Season 6, Episode 19.

This was Martha's response when Clark expressed his heartache about his friendship with Lex. He saw a glimpse of a friend in him, that he hasn't seen since years ago, when Lex actually came back to safe him (Initially, he thought that Lex would have abandoned him in the tunnel). Also, he's expression changed when Lex told him that Clark was the only only true friend he had once upon a time. Clark wondered whether it was because he has given up on Lex too soon, that had Lex changed into the person he is now.

Martha Kent replied:
"You'll never give up on anyone, Clark... because your greatest strength, may also be your greatest weakness - your hope"

Interesting eh? The stuff you can get out from movies... I love picking up quotes or certain meaningful conversations from movies/series.
I reflected upon my past and find it really hard to let go of the fact that... sometimes, so many things happened already (whether expected or unexpected), people change even I did, and some decisions influence your future and others around you... and there is nothing you can do to make things be the way it used to be.

I spent most of my time regretting over the things that happened... and wondered whether there's gonna be more similar regrets as these. But now... I just want to let go and move on. Mum was right... just let go of all my worries as well as my past hurts/disappointments.

I am reminded of my own season once again:
Ecc 3:5

(NIV)
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away.

(NLT)
a time to search and a time to quit searching,
a time to keep and a time to throw away.

(NKJV)
A time to gain, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away.
