This one is a hard one to write, but I think I'm finally ready....

......

There was a time when we chose each other, and it was beautiful.

Then, there was a time when we no longer chose each other. And for the longest time, that was not beautiful. It was tormenting. It was painful. It shone a spotlight on all my own personal inadequacies. 

But then, that brokenness, that goodbye- 

that too, became beautiful. And the only thing that had changed in that time was me...

the only thing that had changed was my mindset and my perception of our relationship. and of myself.

I realised that the end us was not a slight on me as a person, or even you. It was nothing more than the universe saying: you are incompatible. It did not mean I was not worthy, valued, inherently enough. I am all those things- and so are all of you.

And so, when it ends, that is beautiful too. It's liberating, it's empowering, it's an experience that shapes you into the person you are meant to be. You are freed from what was never meant to be. Try to tell me there is no beauty in that.

You've reached the end of published parts.
