breakups
When it comes to breakups, pain is inevitable, but Humans thinks that suffering is optional.
When Happily Ever After Ends
Forget those fluffy flowers, saccharine sweets, and crafty cards. When you know the true origins of Valentine’s Day, you might realize that getting balloons, a teddy bear, roses and chocolates is not all it’s cracked up to be. Depending upon your situation, you really might make out better being alone and/or celebrating a holiday, belief, or spiritual practice centered on true love.

I am discovering who I am without you
I won’t say what has already been said before. I don’t need your honesty; I don’t need your empty words today. Just take my hand, hug me, kiss me like a lover, and don’t let me go. I don’t need you to be my friend, I need to be lost with you inside my heart. Every breath, every heartbeat, every moment is yours to have. Stop dragging my fears out the door and watching my heart break just a little bit more. You have my head spinning, and I feel out of control.

Still struggling with the loss of him
It’s been almost a year since he left and today has been rough, to say the least. I understand these days will show up like an unwelcome relative on your day off, but I am drained of feeling depressed. I look at people who can move forward so quickly and easily, almost like a train going from destination to destination, picking up and dropping off new people. I am more like the turtle trying to cross a major freeway and getting run over by every car passing by.

If I knew it was going to be the last time I was going to see you..
If I knew it was going to be the last time I saw you, I would have hugged you a little bit tighter. If I knew it was going to be the last time I saw you, I would have stayed awake and kissed you longer. If I knew it was going to be the last time that I saw you, I would have reminisced and stayed up all night dancing and listening to music. If I knew it was going to be the last time that I saw you, I would have told you how much I loved you and not held back my feelings. If I knew it was going to be the last time that I saw you, I would have studied your face so I could remember every detail. If I knew it was going to be the last time that I saw you, I would have thanked you for all the love you brought into my life. But you knew it was the last time I was going to see you, and I didn’t.

Confessions of a Ragmop
https://youtu.be/qRrw2hDjnl4 I certainly qualify for membership in the Red Hat Society. Those ladies over fifty who meet for fun and friendship in purple outfits and red hats. But, I prefer to be a member of the Red Flag Bunch. We celebrate the fact that we are still alive and long ago concluded we don't have to go along to get along.

Revenge On The Internet
So my boyfriend and I broke up. Who is to be more anti Valentine's Day this year than me? I've been on a rollercoaster of emotions and more likely to listen to 'Love Stinks' from the Wedding Singer than 'I Can't Help Falling in Love With You' by Elvis Presley. And so who do I turn to for validation and support? (Friends?) No! Strangers on the internet, of course!

Saying NO to Love Day
Soul Searching Many, many years ago a young girl was searching for the missing piece. From the outside looking in, she appeared to have it all. The thing or things that all little girls dream of – a loving family, attendance to the best school, popularity, and more friends than one could ever hope for…. but what’s funny is none of this offered her true happiness or fulfillment.
