I was watching a Korean period drama and a thought crept up to me. The concept of moving on from your lover doesn't seem to be the natural course of life in the olden days. Whether your lover passed away, or got separated, I feel that they were never told to move on/ find someone else as a next step. There is always a period of time of grieving, and remembering of that person. Even in the next life. Of course if someone who is able to open your heart again comes along, it is then natural to perhaps fall in love one more time. But it should never be an active action, to find someone else. Moving on should never be an active action.

I think indirectly, and unknowingly, I feel that that's the way I am. I just never really understand why some people tell others to move on as if it's the most natural thing to do, when I myself feel to move on, is to force myself to do something I would not naturally do. That's why I will never tell someone else to move on just like that. There's so much behind each love story that telling someone to move on is so belittling of what happened between two people. Unless the love was not genuine.

Maybe it's this generation that is changing so much so quickly. If I become like the newer and more recent generation, I think I'll definitely embrace the "there are so many other fishes in the ocean" much more. But I think I'm old-fashioned this way, I'm different. Or rather, it's different for me.
