Breakup Survival - Be Grateful
In the aftermath of a breakup, sometimes the only choice available is
to say "Thank you" to the Universe. Say what? Yes, that's right - a
simple 'thank you' through the tears and the insufferable heartache,
the continual reminders of what was that is no more - the only choice
is to be grateful for the experience.
If someone has made his/her choice to move on, it's not because YOU are
"imperfect" or YOU are stupid, dumb or any of the other adjectives that
you may select to degrade yourself with. It's basically because that
person does not envision a lifetime with you, and in HIS/HER mind there
really is no further need to (pardon me) burn daylight spending time
with each other.
What to do? As mentioned above, say "thank you". You experienced
laughter, joy, fun and all kinds of things that brought freedom to your
soul. And, what you "miss" is more than likely is that euphoria of
feeling like someone cared about you. No matter how much you are
mourning the death of your relationship, you need to be thankful for
the time that you shared. Replacing the grief with gratitude really
does help you to move on quicker to the next best thing ready and
waiting to happen.
Our lives are blessed by each person that touches our hearts. Count your blessings.
