Mind, Body, Soul
He/She Is Not
Right For Me
By Mona Lease
Greetings, Gals!! Maybe the following is said in a way I can
understand. Maybe it's the truth presented in a way not biased "for or
against" anyone. See what you think.
From "The Art of Letting Go" Chapter 2: 13 Things to
Remember When You Realize He's Not Right For You. - Skyla Child
I've always believed that it is easier to be hurt than it is to hurt
someone else. I have told myself so many times - he's the right
guy for someone else, just not the right guy for me. As long as I can
remember, I thought being in a relationship for a few years meant you
are destined to be lifelong partners. It's only recently that I
discovered that this isn't true. I know that I can't be the only one in
this situation, so for those of you who need it - cheers to the
following lessons learned.
1)I've learned hat no matter how long you've been together - when you
know, you know. It's entirely possible to be with someone for a few
years, yet still not be right for each other permanently.
2)You don't meet people by accident, and that person who crosses your
path brings life lessons to you. Everyone you meet makes you stronger
and makes you look at life just a little different than you did before.
3)Count on your family. For years I've considered my significant other
my constant, which is true...to an extent. But, I've learned that your
true constant throughout life is your family. Never forget who you are
and where you came from.
4)Don't lose who you are, even if you don't know yourself yet. In life,
we are constantly reinventing ourselves, but don't give up things you
once loved or sacrifice your independence.
5)It's hard to let go, but it's harder to be unhappy. Some happiness is
only temporary and sometimes making a hard decision requires you to
find happiness that isn't.
6)A relationship should bring out the best in you. A relationship
should be eternally supportive and you should lift each other up in
your worst moments.
7)Mistakes help us find the right person in the long run, and be better
for the next person you share your heart with.
8)Read quotes and listen to LOTS of music. I can't tell you how many
times reading endless quotes on the internet lifted my spirits and gave
me clarity. Music has been my savior through so many challenging times.
9)You have to truly love yourself, inside and out, before you can be in
a successful relationship. We learn to love ourselves more and more
each day through growth....making our own independent decisions,
without seeing them through someone elses' eyes, helps us to find out
who we truly are.
10)LIfe. Gets. Better. Sometimes it's hard to see past tomorrow or next
week. It's easy to get caught up in this moment, and think about how
bad it is, without realizing that with time, things will start looking
up again.
11)Open your eyes to every opportunity. You never know what could
change your life next. Sometimes being in a relationship can fog your
choices...but it's important to take opportunities that will help you
grow.
12)Be brave and be bold. I learned that no matter how hard it is, it's
so important to say what you mean and mean what you say. Not only are
you being honest with others, you're being honest with yourself.
13)Follow your heart and your brain alike. One isn't more important
than the other, they both matter equally. It's important to make smart
decisions that back up your emotional feelings.
DISCLAIMER: I'm not telling or suggesting that anyone do any of the
above or, that if you do, your life will be problem-free. I just
find it all interesting...especially numbers 10 and 13.
"Sometimes all you need is for someone to just be there, even if they
can't solve your problems. Just knowing there is someone who cares can
make all the difference. " - sun.gazing.com
The best is yet to be!! MONA
