Wow, I guess real life can get pretty hectic to where you forget your priorities. For those who regularly visit the site, I apologize for the delay, and will work harder at posting on a regular basis. Once every other day, I figure, would be enough judging that there is only so much I can write about. Such as…the end of a three day weekend and how holidays can affect you, especially if you’re recently broken up.
It’s amazing how hard it is to forget what you once were. To expand on my twitter post, I found myself reflecting on what I would be doing if I were still married. Those times I have been single, for some reason, it didn’t impact me much. Maybe it was because I had family to still see. When I was younger, I was closer to family and it was easier to do things when you were living at home. Now that you’re out in the wild, its harder to keep those connections.
If I were still married on the other hand, I would spend time with my wife and her family, or spend time with just her at home doing whatever. Maybe watching fireworks, going out, staying in, who knows? But the fact that holidays will be different for awhile, is a strange notion. Its like any holiday, even a patriotic one, can make you feel lonesome, and wanting companionship. Seeing the barbecues and the families gathered together. Even being amongst friends, though I was virtually amongst friends yesterday, one can get pretty nostalgic for how things were.
I would like to say, I know how to get over such things. But its not that easy. The wounds can still be fresh even after months have passed. Time heals a lot of things, but the scars are still there. For those in similar situations, all I can say is that you must do things that are fun for you and distracting. Its amazing how doing the things you love, even when you’re not feeling the greatest, can really keep your mind of things. So, if you don’t have a hobby quite yet, now is a great time to pick one up.
