Divergeance

Sometimes we love And our hearts are broken We dream And our hopes are shattered We wish And our desires are unfulfilled We give freely And are left empty-handed And we care for others And aren’t loved in return And those who we once most admired and valued Do not reciprocate our affection. Sometimes we undergo a process of loss and heartbreak And are left feeling broken And lacking hope As we fail to realise That we are not destined to remain stuck in this cycle indefinitely And that in life What lets go of you Leads you home What rejects you Empowers you to embrace yourself fully And that someone’s lack of love for you Is ultimately a reflection of them rather than you. And we feel most hurt Not when we are rejected But when we reject ourselves We feel most sad Not when others upset us But when we seek happiness in sources that are unable to provide it and are left feeling let down And we feel most alone When we are strangers to ourselves And so in order to find peace in our surroundings We must first find peace within In order to find joy outside of us We must first experience joy internally In order to feel fully accepted We must first learn to fully accept ourselves And that Not every race is worth running Not every battle is worth fighting Not every adventure is worth embarking upon And not every relationship is worth pursuing And rejection is simply redirection Allowing us to become more in touch with ourselves And more awakened to our own self-acceptance and self-love.

Blesson... a lesson that is also a blessing. Learning to accept these blessons as just that is sometimes so very difficult. For me, once I figure out the blesson it makes it easier. In order to do that you need to be raw and just be. It's taken me almost 50 years to figure it out, but I fucking get it now.

So quite true.  So instead of being cruel and curt and telling someone to just f-ing move on.  Be kind and tell them ‘Blesson’.  Try being nice sometimes, some of you, instead of being a bitter a--hat.
