Another day gone by which has been another day of missing him, or should I say missing the positive “image” of him that is tattooed inside of my head. The enormity of the sadness and devastation of this betrayal feels like a large anchor pummeled into the underwater sand, and I’m the boat trying to sail away. But, I can’t because this anchor is dragging me down. That positive image that I can’t let go of…if I could only realize that it’s the evil, negative person that he has proven to be which is the why this anchor is so heavy. Perhaps, if I could convince myself to love myself enough to let go of someone who has almost destroyed my sense of self, then the anchor would break away and I could be free. To be free to sail away into a future that can be filled with happiness and a realm of possibilities. Including the potential to meet a man who will treat me better than I’ve been treated before and who will truly love me. I have to remember that my thoughts control my life. That I am the captain of my ship. I’m responsible for my own happiness. I need to let go or I will continue to be dragged!!! I keep praying the Serenity Prayer: “God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.” Or, God grant me the serenity to accept the person that I cannot change (him), the courage to change the person that I can, and the wisdom to know it’s me.
