You know they say that given enough time, you can recover from anything. And when you're in love...or at least when you THINK you're in love, you think this is impossible. You tell yourself you will never be the same, you've changed, the shift in your universe is too huge...that person has made your whole future, past and present a different shade.
HAH.
You CAN forget. You can become exactly the person you were before THAT one person who damaged you forever.
How? Here's how:
Lose yourself. Lose everything that you knew... and when everything is lost, only collect back the pieces that don't contain scars of him/her.

I came across a remnant of you by chance today and I guess, today of all days, I should've been thinking about you. But today was just like any other day... I laughed, I relaxed, I played with my hair..Today I even watched a love story and you weren't there at all. I tried though, when I held that remnant of you in my palm...I tried to conjure you up in my mind. I tried to feel some pang of regret, or pain even. I tried to remember your laugh,your voice, the way you made it so much better just by being there. I tried to capture that image of you that always made my insides twist. I tried...I really tried. But, nothing. There is nothing left of you in me...so HAH.
I like this. And it's true - loving yourself should come before loving anyone else, and although men break our hearts and we feel like we'll never be the same, we have to learn to love the person we were prior to our relationship with a man who obviously didn't love you enough to be with you forever. I've been struggling with a break-up for almost 3 months now and I'm slowly getting back to loving me instead of being sad about one man who didn't love me!
