Time doesn't heal all wounds...

Why are some days easier than others? Some days I'm totally fine with being single--I even enjoy it. Other days, I can't stop thinking about past relationships, and what went wrong. I wonder what could have happened. I wonder what if...?

What if we were still together? What if we could have made it work? What if things had been different? The "what ifs" can drive you crazy.

Can you ever really forget? Time doesn't heal all wounds--the scars just become less noticeable. How long does it take before you don't feel the pain anymore? Pain does mean that we're alive, but it sure makes it hard to live.

I have hope...that someday the memories won't be so vivid. That the pain won't seem so real. That it won't take my breath away each time I think of what happened. That I won't think of what happened with sadness and despair. That I'll be able to think of my past with fondness of the good times had with hope for more in the future.

The mistakes I made, the paths I've taken...these experiences make me who I am today.

I pray that tomorrow I won't be consumed with regret, and that each day will get easier to process what happened and move on.

Today was rough. Lord, please let tomorrow be a little easier.
