Love is.

What is love? I recently got out of a long relationship. And when a huge part of your life leaves, it makes one think about what really matters. What is love? But the questions can be diluted by other choices that you are also forced to make. How to deal with every day things. After a relationship is ended, the feelings don't always leave with it. And here we are. Starting over. Not as we. But as a half of what you were. Half of what we were. I'm not bitter or sad or angry. There is a readjusting process that takes place. And it truly is a process. There is a realization that happens. It is that there is always something to take away. In anything, there can be something to take away. Something that can be used at a later time. Maybe it's a mindset. A view point that has changed. But the thing about it is that you don't really notice it until after it's already happened. So at this point all I know is that there is something that I have to take away. Or maybe I already have. One thing that I know that will not do me any good is to be angry with the other person. Honestly, I want only the best for her. And I mean that. Most people stay bitter. Or angry for the rest of all time. But think about what that does. It is a proven fact that harboring strong negative emotions, lies, etc, is bad for your health. Now I am in no way saying that the only reason I'm choosing to be O.K. is for my health. Far from it. But there comes a point when people need to accept reality, people and the choices that they make.And honestly, I respect her for doing what she had to do. In order to be happy, you need to push out the bad memories and remember the good. Because in my case the good far out weighed the bad. And for that, Thank you.
