Some days are bad, and some days are good. Today is a good day. Today, I actually felt excited to be single. I spent all evening last night watching inspiring TED talks and that got me pumped and motivated to follow my independent path. Today, the summer sun has set upon us and I am feeling great from the weather. As I was driving home, I started to think about enjoying my life as a single woman, really embracing this new freedom I have right now and to have a chance to find my independent, feminine, creative self again. I just need to embrace true singleness because it has been too long. This could be a good thing.
I hope I can stay as positive as this every day but I know there will be more days where I'm going to feel really lonely and be tempted to go back to the relationship out of comfort. I have to keep reminding myself of all the reasons why I was not happy... it wasn't that I was actually unhappy... I was just annoyed and disappointed a lot... I would say half of the time I saw him. I would consider that a lot. I just want to be able to deeply admire and respect my partner. And with Dan, I couldn't do that...
