April

April 2013, 2014, and 2015 were very hard months for me. April 2013 was when I saw the shattering of a love that I thought was real ... a love that I believed with all my heart was real but wasn't. This year, subconsciously I dreaded April and when it came around, I braced myself for the pain that I thought I would feel.

I used to tell myself I didn't love him anymore ... that I was over him ... then I would remember him and I would feel pain, yearning, hatred, love, and self loathing. Now, I feel nothing. I remember him and the good times we had and I cherish it but I no longer feel pain. I have learned my lesson and I've realized what happened had to happen and that it made me a much better person. 


He came into my life for a reason and to be a lesson. When I realized that and accepted it, life became easier. I forgave myself and I became more accepting of things. I learned to let go of what could be and accepted what is. 

3 years ago I lost myself. 
3 years later, I found myself once more. 
I am never letting go of me ever again. 
Never again.

  1. Yes, it is easier to handle heartbreak when you can see the lesson. Lucky that you see it now, sometimes it has taken me a very long time to get there. Blessings to you.

  2. Falling out of love is hard. What does love have to hurt?

  3. It's tough to move on, but when you know you've had enough and you've given your best you'll realize that there's nothing to go back to. I love those last three lines. You're such a strong woman!

  4. Relationships can be painful, but I'm glad to hear you've put this one in the past and it's not affecting you so negatively anymore.

  5. Congrats on finding yourself and getting over lost love. I figure if it didn't happen the way you envisioned it, it was never meant to be and you are better off. Not feeling anything at all is a good sign you've moved on.

  14. They say we need to meet a bad man once in order for us to know who the good man is. Perhaps he is the bad man and the next time you let yourself fall in love, you know who the good one is. Loving is such a wonderful feeling. Love all you can. Cry if you need to. But dont ever let yourself be lost. By the way, nice meeting you at the van back at Starbucks 6750. I alighted first at Paseo de Roxas to mee tmy mom at Zuellig Building :) See you again when I see you.
