In life we hold onto people, believing that their presence is what we have desired. But I realized something, it is not necessarily the person that we hold onto, but the moments they have given us. I used to sit on the shore, listening to the waves tumble over the rocks, wishing I had you holding me once again in this place. Now I sit and all I do is remember the sounds, the smells, the feelings I had, and you are no longer the missing piece. You are just apart of a wonderful moment, a tiny element in the entire scheme. Now I can feel again. I can feel the breeze blowing my hair, tickling my cheek. I feel my toes sink into the sugary sand. The sun touches my skin and I feel it seep in. I look into the horizon and do not wish for you, but merely to capture the irredescent glow of the waters surface, to somehow take with me every shade of misty blue and put it on a canvas. I have allowed to to become no longer the missing link, but simply a part of a memory. How powerful to reclaim your love of the shore, to appreciate it not for what it is lacking, but instead for all the beauty it holds.

Amazing images you've let me percieve.

A great way, your mind thinks.

(smiles) Yes, yes, yes, and when we cherish all these memories and feelings we hold true to our loved ones, when they all come together, we truly bring back that person in your heart as well! (big angel hugs) God Bless You, sweet friend, I love this, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Bravo!!!!!!

This gave me such joy and happiness to read...well done...and thank you for this great masterful awareness...yes indeed, it is not a loss, the the moments of joy and experience, which she/he shared with you, very intimate and sacred which helps to mold you further to knowlege and life...Yes, breaking up is unfortunate, and missing he/she is painful, but then you stop and realize, YOU LOVED, YOU Loved, for the first time in your life...and though that person did not love you, YOUR LIFE WAS MADE BETTER BECAUSE OF THEM...AND NOW, YOU'VE GOT SOMETHING TO WORK ON!
