HEART TO HEART

Just some thoughts about love. Haven't made a post like this in a while, and I just want to record how I feel in this moment so I can look back in the future and see how far I've come.

to do list (after the breakup):

inspired by rupi kaur's poem in milk and honey. i wanted to share my own creative version.

OPEN

Being a romantic at heart has lead me to always be searching for "the one". I'm not quite sure I believe in destiny, fate, or if everything is just coincidence- but I know one day I will find love.

I thought I had found that person, but when that relationship ended, the romantic side of me didn't quite know where to turn. I want to share my experience of how to move on and be open to love after a break up.

FORWARD

I have found myself in a position I never thought I'd be in.

I'm so thankful to have such great family and friends by my side telling me I will be okay. I know in time I'll be better than okay, but right now things are so difficult. I'm so conflicted with what I want to do with my life.

It's time for me to focus on myself and realize my worth. I deserve more than what I've received, and I know that more is out there waiting for me. Maybe not tomorrow, or in the next month or year... but it's out there and I'm ready to discover it.

Only time will tell where I'll go and who I'll be. When times get tough you have to keep going, staying in place doesn't make things better. I'm going to choose to be positive, to not dwell, and to be happy. I'm going to concentrate on myself, work, friends, and school to keep myself busy... to keep on living my life to the fullest.

Thanks for the memories. I'll always love him, but I love me more.

BALANCE

Throughout my university life, I've come to the realization that I'm a big believer in a balanced lifestyle. That "work hard, play hard" phrase really started to resonate with me when it came to my everyday routine.

I think having a balanced lifestyle is a definite key to a more peaceful and rewarding life.
