Live and
Learning
The idea of live
and learning came to me slowly...there was alot of events in my
life that took place before I could appreciate life to the
fullest. I suppose my bad marriage was one of them...having a
lover in my life at the time was a big contribution into learning
to appreciation of life....and my near death experience played
the roles into my mind.
There was alot of things my
lover taught me...I remember him telling me "Life can be so
short, so spend take it easy and relax, and make the most
of it, laugh everyday, be crazy everyday, do something you
wouldn't normally do, and meet lots of people....for tomorrow may
never come. Forgive yourself for your mistakes and for
those who have done you wrong or have been hurtful to you, love
everyone you meet, adore them, care for them, touch their lives
with happiness, and never walk away from a loved one in anger,
walk away with the happiness you had with that person...even
though it couldn't last forever...don't spend anytime with
negative energy, laugh it away and look forward to better things,
you have to live with all that you do in you life, no one else
does."
I took his words to heart...and looked at my marriage...it was
falling apart at the seams and there was nothing there
anymore....so much emptiness...and I was so alone...the only time
I felt complete was when I was with my
lover...and after trying to communicate with my husband to try
and make things work, he just brushed me away and I knew it was
time to end the relationship.
I looked back at the fun
times and the laughter my husband and I had at one point. I said
good-bye to the anger and hatred I had felt for him, and filled
it with love and happiness of the memories we shared. It was much
like burying someone you loved, but you always have the good
memories of what you want to keep inside you, and cherish those.
At that time I let my husband go, I had no regrets about what we
had or what went wrong. It was just another experience in my life
that I had to learn from. I took a big step back and took mental
notes of how it was, and I was happy with the end results of how
I managed to cope with it. I loved him for all he was, and that
was all I could do in the long run for the sake of my sanity and
happiness.
Although there have been
relationships I had with others that came and went after, I've
always held onto my lovers words. For he taught me how to enjoy
everyone and everything that passed by me in my life. I can only
do so much as one person, and I've shared my knowledge with
people in hope that what he shared with me can be as passed onto
you as a reader.
