And you can muse and wonder and analyze and think about how and why until ? the perverbial cows come home.
And this will not get you anywhere. I almost went down that path with you thinking "Society doesn't support this, it's so easy for men to think that there is another woman better for him out there, blah, blah, blah".
Ooops--sorry *I* almost was encouraging this kind of thinking!! SO SORRY!!!
STOP!!!!!
Back to you. The only thing you can control. Now is YOUR TIME!! To exercise those mind muscles. To figure out many, many things.
Who do you want to be? Huge-this takes a LOT of energy and time. At least it has for me. I don't want to be co-dependent. I want to be compassionate. I want to be forgiving. I want to be a positive force out there. Balancing this right now has been very, very challenging.
Enough about me--who do YOU want to be? Write it out!
Focus on the positives so that they will INCREASE!! Yes! It's a fact, I promise you. Focusing on the positives in your life will bring more. This takes discipline as well.
When you want to dwell on the things that you cannot control, you must stop yourself. You must redirect your thoughts.
This is not a skill that you possess. Yet. Do you want to get angry and blame your MLC that you have to learn this skill?
I chose to be ever-so-grateful. If not for mine, I would spend a LOT of time thinking about the negative. In all areas of my life. It's human nature.
Should I have learned this skill ages ago? Probably. But there is nothing like this to motivate a person. Nothing.lol.
