You Will Be Just Fine!

[Rob1000]

13 months out from a 5 year relationship. I've learnt many things in that time.

 

1. The habits and associations die off.

2. The flashbacks stop.

3. It really is all in your mind.

4. You become yourself again

5. You cringe because you spent far too much time pining over someone.

6. You understand that you cannot control others. So control yourself.

7. You realise that some mysteries are just meant to remain unsolved.

8. You managed just fine before you met them. You’ll manage just fine after them.

9. Being on your own can be really nice.

10. It was fun while it lasted. Thanks for visiting my world….

 

Move forward with an open heart, look back with a smile. Wherever you go, there you are!

Tell me, how far into the 13 months when you started dating again and didnt feel bad (like you felt were cheating).

Well if you agree that it's all in your mind and that you alone control yourself, then the points you disagreed on are purely down to you and you alone.

Around 7/8 months.

Far better to have loved and lost, then to have never loved at all.

 

The memories we take with from the love we share, are ours to treasure, and no one can take them from us.

This is good, Rob. These two connect to another realization:

3. It really is all in your mind.

4. You become yourself again

WHO you are, WHO you were, and WHO you will become are products of your mind as well. You can adjust your thoughts and judgements about these.

I agree with everything you said. its just the beginning and middle part that most people have a hard time dealing with. Most of us have been around the block enough to know the light shines bright at the end. it just stinks right now man

Journey, have you seen "What the bleep do we know!?"

Journey, have you seen "What the bleep do we know!?"

 

Yes, ages ago, when it first came out, and my memory is vague. Maybe I should see it again?

 

I have learned, this past year and a half, how thoughts affect mood. I tend to make a habit of thinking a certain way and it affects my level of happiness or unhappiness. I think it is the way we *choose* happiness. I'm still learning, still changing, evolving. *I think.*

 

Maybe this is the meaning of "I think, therefore I am." It's our thoughts that make us.
