I don't know who needs to read this today, but I signed the paperwork completely removing myself from my "dream house". 20 years of saving and planning and dreaming, I got to live in it for 5 years.

You know what? I felt NOTHING! I arranged to meet the title company and it's done. And then I had tacos. : )

3 years ago, I thought my life was over. I couldn't breath when I thought about life without X. I didn't know how I would survive. I could NOT accept that my M might be over.

Today, I am strong. I started a new career. I have friends, I work out, I have good days and bad...like everyone else on the planet.

What I don't have? Anxiety and stress over who X is with, when/if D is coming, what mood he's going to be in today, what he thinks about me, what he thinks about...anything.

Stay the course, friend. GAL, keep going, cry when you need to, be ok, be not ok...just keep going. Onward and upward.

There is peace in letting go. There is relief in letting go. There is joy in living in that peace.

The pain you feel now? Ride it out. It will pass. Each wave will get further apart and less acute. Breathe. Accept. Release.

Big hugs to everyone. <3
