life goes on...

and we must go on with it. Though reality sets in and we sometimes want to turn our faces from the horrific sight of the truth, we eventually learn to cope with and move on. This is what makes us strong. I had some insight today. Things die, if they didn't it would be unnatural. Though it's a crude awakening to life, it happens and it determines what kind of a person we are by the way we allow things to happen. If we sit around and mope all of the time and not let any kind of feeling in, then we are weak and unnatural. If we can learn from everything and move on with a better understanding about the world around us, we are strong and sensible. Life doesn't stop for anything. Not for a loved ones death, or a broken relationship, or anything. If you think it will stop for you, then you are poorly mistaken and will end up hurting yourself through the realizations that you were wrong. So keep walking alongside life. On the way, we may stumble and fall, but life manages to pick us back up and keep us going.
I know at first I didn't listen to this, though it was right in front of my face I would turn and not let it show itself. Thats what made me unrealistic and fake. After getting a deeper understanding, I can take this knowledge and keep going.
The great thing about being a human is we are able to take in large amounts of information and learn. Everything happens for a reason. When we are hurt we accumulate the information and learn from our mistakes. This applies to the scenario when we are children and placing our hands on the stove. We feel pain, but we take in the information so next time we know not to put our hands on the stove. This can apply to relationships too. We are hurt when its over, but we learn what was good and what was bad in it, so next time we have more information. Thats the good thing about relationships. At the end of each one, we record what we liked and didnt like so we are able to continuously raise our standards for the next person. We are able to get a better grasp on what we like and dont like. So when we go back to searching for the next significant someone, we can apply what we learned so as to find that person that works. I believe this is how we find our mate.
We all recover, through different ways. Its impossible to lead a fulfilling life in pain. This information is reassuring to have learned. Without pain there would be no gratitude or happiness. At times we may not think of this, but in the end, it shows.
Love,
Corinne
