The distant lanky silhouette
It felt good to be able to say hi and smile genuinely from the heart.
Somewhat awkward to be almost stranger with someone whom you once consider a soulmate.
Still... it's a good start =)
I like these two quotes from a friend's blog:
Carrying your negative emotional baggage requires energy
that could be put to much better use
Say goodbye to it,
let it go,
and get on with your life.
- Lucy MacDonald
You can shed tears that she is gone,
or you can smile because she has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that she'll come back,
or you can open your eyes and see all she's left.
Your heart can be empty because you can't see her,
or you can be full of the love you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday,
or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember her only that she is gone,
or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.
You can cry and close your mind,
be empty and turn your back.
Or you can do what she'd want
smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
