I saw something the other day on a thread that I felt was important. "Hope" is the rope. And if you are going to completely "drop the rope" (a HUGE key), then you have to drop the hope.
Hope keeps you stuck. Hope keeps you looking for signs. Hope keeps your mind reading going. Hope keeps you focused on "the good times" and "blaming yourself". For "nice" guys (or girls), hope keeps you focused on "fixing"
Hope is an enemy. The reason I say this is because, until she is standing in your doorway crying and asking to come home, ALL HOPE IS FALSE!!
The sooner you can drop the hope; the sooner you can drop the rope. The sooner the focus changes to you. The sooner the optimism returns. The sooner YOUR fog clears.
WOW. You're right Dude.
Very well put.
Thank you for your help. You have come a long way and I just realized my hang up.
