After she left, she continued to move on...while i continued to hold on. I held on throughout an 8 month separation, a very nasty 13 month divorce, and then for a year after the divorce.
I now am committed to putting my time and energy into investing in my own personal growth instead of investing in a relationship that has ended. There is no return on the investment in the relationship's emotional corpse. In contrast, the greatest possible return comes from investment in me.
And letting go is the key to my growth and development. I want to do this.


"Always go straight forward, and if you meet the devil, cut him in two and go between the pieces." - William Sturgis, clipper ship captain, 1830's.
