A beautiful day!
Saying goodbye to something you have gotten accustomed to is much like a breakup...abrupt...like nobody saw it coming...it's a heartbreak...and you imagine your life going on without the ritual...without the familiarity...moving away from the beat. initially you felt the lost identity...you thought of the why's and the what-ifs....there may be answers to your questions but you're still miserable anyway...
You want to hear words or explanations to make you feel better (you don't know exactly what they are, but somehow feels right and good once you hear it). Then there's hatred....but I'm old enough to move on and to decide not to get hooked on hatred.
Enough of that.
Whatever my concept of love was then, even if it's flawed, it is still love in its imperfections. Now that I am older, I can choose the concept of love that actually functions in the real world, not just in theory. I know it would be better....
I'm in LOVE with life, with my daughter, and with YOU! ...(thanks for keeping the sanity ha ha..)
