Some Things Are Not Meant To Be



“To look life in the face, always, to look life in the face, and to know it for what it is...at last, to love it for what it is, and then to put it away.” - Virginia Woolf

There I was minding my own business and then boom! Some person wants attention. They'll do almost anything to get my attention. Then I realize that some kind of cat and mouse game is being played. I got sucked into whatever ploy the person had imagined.

Some things are not meant to go on living. Some things do stop moving. Some relationships do die. It is selfish for anyone to want some things to keep going even when it is obviously struggling or dying, or dead. The mind can recall memories - good ones. The mind can distract us from recognizing the agony of a failed friendship or relationship.

I say let it go. Put it away. Shut the door. Put on some music. Hot tea. Call a friend. Move on.

This is something I needed to read. I guess it's just life working itself out. It's difficult, but necessary. Thank you and love you!
