Breaking Up Is Hard Enough….Do You Relive it Again and Again?

Imagine a summer evening, ocean front seating at the city’s hottest new bistro and you looking better than ever with a new outfit…the perfect outfit, a great hair day and a date with the man of your dreams.
Maybe you get there a little early, just to enjoy the anticipation of it all.  You’ve been ready for hours, anyway.  Feel the breeze on your cheek as you sip that rare pinot.  The crisp linen table cloth a stark contrast to the bamboo table setting.  A single orchid highlighted by the spotlight above sits between you and the empty pillow across the table.  Soak in the moment of anticipation.  A part of you knows exactly what it feels like to be in that moment.


Your job is to find that part of you and connect to it BEFORE your soul mate comes into your life.

If you were drawn to the beginning few sentences, you are there.  Being captivated by words is the answer.  Create mini romance novels in your mind.  Your imagination LOVES pictures, emotions and stories.  Once the experience of your inner story gets physical and you can truly feel yourself there…you’ve got it.


There is only one slight problem…

If a part of you winces or gets sarcastic when you read something sappy love story, somewhere inside a part of you just might be living in an ancient breakup. It is as if the battle has never ended.  Think about it.  Which relationship or relationships ended badly?  Who did you fall for and never get over?  Why are you waiting?  What needs to change for you to move forward toward your dream?

Amazing what a little self inquiry can do.

With these questions unresolved, it is downright painful to think about the empty spot in the bed next to you.  It is easy to feel overwhelmed and hopeless about ever meeting The One.  The good news is this.  As deeply as you ache over some of the hurt, that is how deeply you will feel loved when you resolve those old battle wounds.

You are creating your world with your thoughts.  Make it the World of your Dreams!  Make peace with those past dramas.  Let them go.  Learn to feel your own fabulous love story before it comes to you.  It is worth every bit of the effort it takes.  How much do you want to be loved and cherished by the perfect man?  Are you willing to really let go and allow True Love in?

If you believe it, you can achieve it.  What you focus on becomes your reality.  In a heart beat you can change your mindset.  Or can you?  What do YOU think?
