My relationship has finished.

I was going to say as much as I could about it. I've changed my mind. Instead, I have found this passage from 'The Prophet'.



On Pain
Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.

Even as the stone of the fruit must break, that its heart may stand in the sun, so must you know pain.

And could you keep your heart in wonder at the daily miracles of your life, your pain would not seem less wondrous than your joy;

And you would accept the seasons of your heart, even as you have always accepted the seasons that pass over your fields.

And you would watch with serenity through the winters of your grief.

Much of your pain is self-chosen.

It is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self.

Therefore trust the physician, and drink his remedy in silence and tranquillity:

For his hand, though heavy and hard, is guided by the tender hand of the Unseen,

And the cup he brings, though it burn your lips, has been fashioned of the clay which the Potter has moistened with His own sacred tears.




I think this is as close to as I can describe the pain I feel.

Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect, it means you've decided to look beyond the imperfections... unknown

I'm sorry, Therapy...I remember you telling me about it when it started up again... hug

And the quotation you posted is so true...

So:

Just look at your son...and be happy... smile

Just imagine who awaits you around the corner...and be optimistic... heart

Just accept that life finds a way of giving you all that you desire...and be ready for when it does... yes

And just take time to notice every small thing you've been overlooking around you...and find peace within the beauty you see... rose

That is so beautiful Wellbeyond, I was holding it together really well until someone, you in this case, extended yourself in the way that you have... Thanx man.

There's a strange beauty in these razor type tears.
