Revelations

[seemystoneheartbreaking]

Okay, I didn't see a thread for this anywhere but if there is one please move this to where it belongs. It's for revelations obviously, things that just sort of smack you in the head one day. If you want to post them.

My revelation: Today I realized that I'm getting stronger. I'm not going to cry so much, I'm not feeling near as much heartbreak. I'm okay. I'm okay with her loving someone else. It's taken so long to get here but I realized that I'm going to be okay. Because I realized that no matter who she loves now, and no matter who she ends up with, and no matter what happens. For that small amount of time she was mine. And we made it wonderful. It ended, and there wasn't a thing I could have done to change it. And its taken a long time, but I really am going to be okay.

I step out of a shadow and see the light for the first time in my life. I fear no more I love and am loved and it is all because of She. She brings comfort , peace, joy, relief , love and happiness to my life and her name is she she she.

That when it comes to language I am a snob, becasue my first thought on seeing this thread was "I believe the word you wanted was epiphany" I'm such an ass!

Also, on topic...that I really do love my mother in some odd way after all

The only way out of this predicament is to do it again. I wish there was another way.

Di was right. Oh dear Goddess, she was right. The woman's complete lack of attention when it comes to me is completely unnerving. Not for the reasons she thinks, however. I do not always get what I want. But in this case my attraction is based on air, yet its strong. I realize that I have no idea why the woman gets under my skin. She just does, and yet she doesn't pay any attention to the fact that she doesn't. She doesn't seem to even know of my existence. writerfreak

I am completely, utterly insane. When it comes to the past it drives me to the brink of madness. Love is my antedote, and my curse.

it's true what they say...love comes along as soon as you stop believing entirely that it will ever show up...and usually when it can be as complicated as possible

Life after 40 is going to be simply blissful and happy with much peace and contentment. Finally our day has come.

it totally smacked me yesterday:

the fact that I've been working really hard on something for the 9 years doesn't nescesarily mean it's the (only) right career for me.

A friend suggested I could do the volunteering thing, which I do whenever I can spare the time, for a living.

she might just be crazy enough zo be a genius... I obviously like it and maybe I'm a happier person if I continue living the underdog lifestyle instead of working my but off to be a professional artist.

I am good at bing the underdog and get usually get respected for what I do to support others... and if I like that.. why do anything else?

It's better to regret what you've done than regret what you didn't do.

Also

I worry too much.

I really don't need the people I thought I did. Just my kids, my wife, and my best friend. The rest can all just go away and I can handle it. It will hurt, but not break me. You all can't break me. -Not said to kittens-

no-one is perfect

While most everyone has at least one "bitch-friend"...you don't really need one and are frequently better off without one...good riddance
