While I believe this to be true, I will have to say this is easier said than done. Especially for someone who has gone through so much pain. Or someone who’s very angry. You might even say this is so hypocritical. You might even say,
“How can I let the person who caused my sadness be happy?”
Be still, my heart. I know right now, you won’t appreciate what I have to say because there is so much hatred in you. You have been deeply wounded and you refuse to believe that time heals all wounds or if it does, it will leave a scar so big that you would be constantly reminded of its pain. At this moment, you feel as if the whole universe is conspiring against you and that you are doomed to be unhappy forever. You see the world through broken lenses, you only see the cracks and not the beauty surrounded by those cracks. You are drowning in your misery, you never want to come up for a breath of fresh air.
I read somewhere that “Happiness is a decision. You are as happy as you decide to be.” and that you should never give the key to your happiness to someone else. You have to realize that there is more to life than being in a relationship with a man. You have been betrayed not only once but too many times but it doesn’t mean that you have to give up on love or life for that matter. You are so focused on your loss that you fail to look around and see that there’s still so much you could gain.

Well, here’s what I have to say about this. Enough of your pity party! I also read somewhere that Cinderella got her “happily ever after” because she did not go back for her shoe. So, stop looking back! Get out from that corner of the bed, dust yourself off, look up then look straight ahead, DECIDE to be happy and take a step forward. Never look back, there won’t be anything left to look back at anyway, because by the time you finish dusting yourself off, I’d have been finished burning that bridge down.
