Hey Heartbroken,

 

A long time ago, under a different name, I stumbled in here all messed up with that pain in my chest and that madcraving for a missing presence. I cried my heart out on here (and everyone was not always compassionate, but suffering makes some people mean, don't let it make you mean). I was sad and angry and hurt and I had to get too know my own feelings and go through all kings of amazing trippy **** as I processed my emotions in a conscious way.

 

That's the moral of my stupid story. Process your feelings, and stop asking why this happened. You will be a better person.

 

(But strange *******, how do I process my feelings?)

Simple: consciously feel them. Do whatever necessary to evoke the pain and sit and feel the pain and so not run away. Do not fantasize about the future and do not go into your memories for comfort. Feel your pain, see how out stems from your attachment to someone who is gone. Look at your own desires, why do you want what you want?

 

You can channel this pain into art or sport or you can just sit with it like Zen badass. As long as you are conscious wth your pain and the root of your pain you will process it automatically.

 

All these years later, and life is better than it ever was. My loss led me on a journey of self discovery. If you allow your loss to something similar then in time it will have been worth it. It really will.

 

Have courage.

Feel the deep love.

Thanks for this. People really are mean on here and they love to assume the worst case scenario in any situation. Maybe because it happened to them and they think all people are the same.
