I’m talking to a friend of mine, and we’re discussing how weird it is that we’re both surrounded by people but we feel absolutely lonely… And that’s me now.
I’ve come to realize that being in a relationship is kind of overrated, and should be handled with care… no need to rush, people. No need to rush. The handful of months I spent being single after being in a long-term relationship were more precious than I realized… not because of the possibility of meeting another man… but simply because I had time to spend on myself…because all of my energy was spent making myself happy, not trying to depend on anyone else for any kind of happiness.
It was entirely up to me!
And for one final thought, I leave you with the following lyrics from Savage Garden’s Affirmation:
“I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can’t appreciate real love until you’ve been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don’t know what you’ve got until you say goodbye.”
