BUNS, ABS, AND HEART OF STEEL #3

[forward]

I believe I will hurt in such a situation, too, but I believe that this is where we are all too focused on the X. It doesn't matter what they do--we cannot control it. It doesn't matter. They do not control our lives either.

We have to focus on building our own happinesses now. It is hard to have it hurt too much when our own lives are fulfilling and happy. So that is where I am focusing.

I've been tracing through my past, learning about myself and trying to figure out how to have a better future relationship, and I think this is truly a path to healing. I don't anticipate having a future R w/X, beyond what is essential, but I do want to have a positive future R with someone. I am not quite ready for that, but I am also feeling pretty happy with my life right now.
