Letting Go ...

A year ago, this was me and my life ...

A year later, I still have regrets, still think about it all, still wish I had done things differently and still wish he was by my side...
But this is how I felt at the time and still believe now...
 and this is what I remind myself ...

Sorry for the short and brief post today! I will be back later with a more upbeat post :) 

Hope everyone is having a great weekend! xo

Rissy said...

well first I just have to say ahhhhhhhhh 300 followers.

and I agree with your first commenter... everything does happen for a reason (as cheesy as it may sound).

I was in a similar situation, and although I didn't have a choice in the matter, I am sure tthere is someone out there who is a better fit for me. I bet that's the case for you too! ; )

LOVE those quotes and always always remember where you came from and where you have been. I have learned the minute you forget, is the minute you go right back there. I too have made it so far in five years from what my life was, would love to share with you. Whatever it was CONGRATS TO YOU. Remember to give yourself a pat on the back today. Thanks for becoming a follower!!!

What a cute blog you have! The design is so lovely!
I'm stoppin by from FTLOB!

I gotta tell you, I was in that exact position once or twice in my life. But, now I am married to one of those guys that I had to set free. We are the loves of each others lives.
It can and will happen for you too! :)
I know there were some days it just didn't feel like that though!

Happy Sunday and I'm sending happy vibes your way!

Megan said...

Awwww, so sorry that you had to go through something like this!! There is definitely someone out there for you and God will show you who in perfect timing. You just have to be patient and trust God!

Cait said...

aw love it's okay- like meg said God will show you the perfect person when the time is right- true fact I had gone through the same thing 4 years ago- swore off guys- and suddenly out of no where, I met a guy who (as you've all seen on my blog( has completed my life the last 3 1/2 years :) it'll happen when you least expect it xo

I can relate..i let go of someone almost a year ago..had to what was best for me & now i am happy.
Everything happens for a reason!

Ashley said...

I've gone through this and looking back for a while, I had a lot of regret. Now, I look back and realize that he was taken out of my life so that I could become stronger and become the person that I need to be in order to be happy with anyone else. I completely understand where you are coming from, lady!

Sophie said...

You have a whole bunch of blog friends here to help you along the way :) hope you are feeling ok, the quotes are so powerfully beautiful x

Megan said...

Ohhhhh, I have SO been where you are. And it's not an easy time to go through...but I do think it makes you a better person. Just you wait - there's great things in the future waiting for you!!

Amber said...

You are so sweet, beautiful and just an all around good person. You will meet your perfect match when you least expect it!

Katie said...

These are beautiful quotes, strong words. Just step back and let time take over. Give it a chance to make things right in your life. To help guide the special someone in your direction. Love life for you until then :) Things will work out!

Beth said...

Strangely enough, this post made me feel quite hopeful and optimistic. I think it's all the way you look at life, how you face it.

Aww, my friend!!! Trust me when I say this: It will find you. And, it will find you when you LEAST expect it!!! You are beautiful. You have a shining spirit and a gorgeous smile. You are caring and considerate. You will find someone that appreciates ALL of you...I promise!!!

Jessica said...

Be strong girl! Everything happens for a reason. You never know what life will bring you. I actually admire what you did. It's difficult to let go but some times you need to. I wish I could. I'm always here if you need somebody to talk to. xoxo

Michelle (michabella) said...

Omg Michelle. You have no idea how much I needed this!!! Esp that last picture...i have been struggling with accepting that, been fighting with God and my loss of hope. Thank you so much. We both will one day have that most deserving true love that will have made all of this so worth it! Love ya friend!

Megan said...

I couldn't agree with this more! I was in a VERY similar situation and then all of a sudden, when I least expected it, everything came together! Not just in love, but in my entire life! :-) I am sure you will go through, if you haven't already, the same! have a great day!

Meg O. said...

Sorry things have been tough this past year... but those are some really great quotes. You seem to be really mature about the situation!

Jennifer said...

Things always go the way they did for a reason =) Sometimes people find a way back into your life and sometimes, the new person to take their place sweeps you so much off your feet that any lingering past regrets cease to exist =) True story!

love ya girly girl! mwah!!!!
