At some juncture, we will all experience heartbreak. This hurt can occur in the dynamics of any type of relationship we have, but this blog will focus on one of the biggest emotional traumas, divorce. No one enters a marriage expecting it to end in hurt, disappointment, betrayal, or all the other reasons it ends. However, this scenario is increasingly becoming a reality for many. It doesn’t matter what the cause of the divorce was (usually it”s a cumulation of several issues over time), whether it was irreconcilable differences, infidelity, or anything in between, it hurts. Badly. It leaves the person with a sense of personal failure, wondering what they did wrong, and perhaps what they could have done better. Everyone is different, so healing looks different for everyone. However, one thing is for certain…you must heal. Simple yes, easy no. Once your heart has been broken, or your trust shattered, you become a different person. You can never be the person you once were. This is not a bad thing, IF you become a better version of the person you were before. Again this is simple, but not easy. What do we do with all this hurt and resentment? We let it go. We heal, we evolve, we treat ourselves with kindness, and we let the emotions come as they will. Recognize them for what they are, then release them back into the past where they belong. Open yourself, your heart, and your mind to the new. Building a wall might shut out your chances of being hurt again, but it’ll also surely shut out your chances of experiencing love as well. Learn to trust yourself again, believe in yourself, know that you will love and be loved again. You absolutely will. Give yourself this chance.
