Shit...that hurts...

Warning!! This is not one of those posts where I have some sort of answer or advice to give...I don't. 

We all have a person or persons in our lives that have done a lot of damage to us or caused issues. That no matter how hard we try to forgive and forget, we just can't. We push the thoughts away and eventually you can make it disappear, thinking and telling yourself that you are fine and all is good. (If you work hard and drink enough, you can forget almost anything eventually.) Then when you're in an amazing spot and you're really high on life...BAM! Their name pops up on your text and suddenly, you are in free fall and you can't control it. Your stomach drops, your heart races, your temper rises, and all those feelings of hurt and damage come flooding back. It could be an ex who cheated or a friend who betrayed you...you get the idea. 

Anyone have any thoughts on how to get that to go away??? 

I don't, but at least this time around as I have more time to sit and reflect on things, the more I realize that some stories and actions have more red flags than the Moscow airport. But hey, at least this time I hadn't landed yet. 


I guess I do have some "advice"...as much as you may want to throw those walls up around your heart and guard it forever, don't. Don't let that person continue to damage you. Keeping moving forward, keep loving...you will eventually find that person who will catch all the broken pieces and gently put them back together. Don't give up.
