You Cannot Fully Heal After a Breakup Without Doing These 2 Things
Healing is about developing a set of skills that are based on lessons you initially failed to learn.
Imagine standing in front of a gigantic mirror where you see yourself and your surroundings.
You see your reflection and everything around you perfectly well.
Everything is fine. Your reflection in the mirror looks good. You see the place you are in clearly.
Now, heartbreaks are when this mirror shatters into a million, sharp pieces. Some pieces are big, others are small. All are sharp. And all will hit you as hard as possible.
They will wound you when they hit you.
Some will hit you now; some will hit you later.
The main idea is that the mirror is now but a sharp, harmful object that will hit you painfully. A million times.
It can get shattered instantly and with no warning. Or a few cracks here and there can eventually destroy it.
But it is not only that. Things are worse.
You can no longer see yourself or your surroundings. And if you do, it is a reflection that is not only not clear but also deceiving.
