When It Rains, It Pours...But Then The Flowers Grow...

So today I did what I said I was going to do on May 1st. I ousted some of that negativity from my life. Sadly that came in the form of a relationship I care deeply about. It was painful. It is painful.
The sad part is that there is nothing but love between me and that person. I guess sometimes in life you're just not in the same space at the same time. Some of us, no matter how well intended or how much we love a person, can't be there for them the way that they need. Or give to them what they deserve. Sometimes external forces take a hand - career, finances, distance etc. But whatever the reasons, it's always a sad conclusion to a story.
You just have to make sure you give yourself what you need. And I hope that's what has happened today.
Although it doesn't feel like it right now, I know it will all be for the best. It always is. Peace of mind has been drifting on my horizon for far too long. It's time to get my oars out and start paddling towards it.

But for now, let's not forget that there's no pain like the exquisite pain of heartbreak, even when so many good things are happening. So today, I'm giving myself a break. As I said before, the clouds will break. If not tomorrow, then the next day...or maybe the day after that...



We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the life that is waiting for us.
