I’m trying, I really am.
I realized that the common denominator for many of my challenges with relationships in the past few years – with my husband, my former best friend, etc. – was my persistence in focusing on the negative and forgetting, quite frankly, about all that was positive in those relationships.
I was choosing to see the few bad things, and ignoring the good.
This was particularly true in my relationship with my husband, and the challenges that I, quite honestly, largely created.
So now… now I am trying to let go. To accentuate the positive. To remember that there is so much that is good in my life, and in these relationships, and in life in general.
It’s not always rainbows and bunnies, but… it’s a darn good life. And I need to remember that.
