learning from the past for a better future flizmo_kid: Hello M,
It has been a while since I have written you a real letter. You know, it is funny how from time to time your memory has crept into my mind, how angry i get for about a minute, and then it passes. These events have become fewer and fewer, and for that I am greatful. I am learning how much more comfortable I have become with myself since you have been gone. Sure, the first few months were rough, but I have come to re-learn that you do not define me. That the relationship we were in does not define who I am. More importantly, the failure of that relationship does not make me the failure that I thought I once was, when you initially broke the news to me about your wanting out. I am getting stronger; not completely healed, but ready to seek new experiences without you. I find that I am strong enough to say that I now seek support to continue my healing, rather than trying to figure out what went wrong. This is a starting point for a new life, and a new acceptance for who I am; and who I will continue to grow into without you.
B
