LovelyDaze Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Think about it. You go around life feeling great and all of the sudden...you get the bad news. You have to change your life and rearrange things you do because of this sudden shock. You ask a million questions but the main one is "WHY???!?". When everything was going so well, why are YOU the one chosen to carry the burden of this heartache? Now, you learn in order to get rid of the hurt and the pains you are experiencing, you have to have work done on yourself. You are told that you have to change a lot of your old habits because it was those same habits that created this situation in the first place. You struggle to get rid of your vice. You reach for it, crave it, want to feel it. Some slip and give in, others stay the course even when they are hurting so bad...either way...major surgery is STILL necessary. So time has passed and you comply with the orders given to prep for a new you. It is terrifying and surreal but you lean on others who DO love you for support. Hell, you even go grab an ice cream cone one day or take a mini-vacation. It actually feels GOOD to alleviate some of the pain and feel normal. Surgery time. It's a time where you are torn apart, bleeding, teary, drowsy, scared, dreaming,scarred, gutted, knocked down, knocked out and most of all...about to change into a new and better you. Recovery is still painful. You get help from friends and family, head back to work a little bended but not broken, and you take care of yourself a little better so you can heal. Now the moment comes when the pain is almost unheard of! You haven't forgotten at all how painful everything was but damn it, you FEEL GREAT NOW! The scars prove that you went through a battle and came out a winner. Getting over a major setback is NEVER easy. Let's all fight the good fight and beat this disease called heartbreak.
madrugada Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Brilliant. I love it. I'm going to print this post out and carry it in my pocket. I wish I were at the point where I could start working on myself. I'm still stuck in the forlorn mourning stage, where I can't possibly see myself ever meeting someone like my ex, and I don't want to try. Getting over someone you've lost is like major surgery, I agree with that. But so is the breakup itself. I feel like I've lost my right arm. I wake up with ghost pains and walk around with a pinned sleeve. I'm looking forward to the time when the wounds turn into scars. I'm just not there yet. Thank you for the beautiful analogy.
Author LovelyDaze Posted December 10, 2009 Author Posted December 10, 2009 You're welcome:p I feel anything that hurts eventually heals. We broken hearted people just need to stop picking at the scabs like we often do.
DenverBachelor Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Let's all fight the good fight and beat this disease called heartbreak. Is it a disease or medicine for the future?
Author LovelyDaze Posted December 10, 2009 Author Posted December 10, 2009 Good point DenverBachelor. Hmmmm...I feel that there is not a person on the planet who hasn't experienced a broken heart at some point. Tough for us to believe, but even our exes have or certainly will be LoveShack worthy when they go through being dumped themselves.
puppydog Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Yeah I'm at the point where I'm healing nicely and starting to work on myself. No more scab picking! Sometimes I wonder if my ex will ever see his own flaws and why we broke up. Oh well! No more wasting time thinking about him. It's all about ME now. =)
Author LovelyDaze Posted December 10, 2009 Author Posted December 10, 2009 Keep it up, puppydog! We all can do this. We will admit that we don't really WANT to, but we know we NEED to! A good man/woman is out there waiting for us to get over our jerkfest of an ex.
