I am in that liminal space, knowing that where I was no longer fits, having little sense of where I will be one year from now. I am learning to be quiet and to listen, to watch for signs. It’s equal parts unnerving and exhilarating.
This is absolutely amazing! Wow just wow! So good! This helped me so much right now! I’m having such a hard time letting go of a marriage that lasted 25 years. I’ve been married since I was 19 and have 3 amazing children and I know I need to move forward, but I’m struggling bad. Thank you so much for this! I really can’t thank you enough for this writing! God put this writing in front of me when I needed it so much!
Heartbreak and beauty....it goes hand in hand.When the heart is shattered to pieces, one thinks that love inside shrinks, diminishes. So wrong. It expands. One has more understanding for other people's suffering. One becomes a healer.Where lies the beauty? It is like the broken Japanese vase put together with golden.Even more beautiful than before. If I remember it right, it is from the great Hemingway:" The cracks are where the light comes in."
I’m liking the Integration Piece a lot. I used it on my morning walk, asked myself why I can’t let go of a certain thing that is holding me back, I spoke it out loud, I’ve written about it multiple times, it comes from a place of love, I read something once that said if it hurts so much you might have to let it go multiple times. It is uncomfortable like you said and no one wants to be uncomfortable but it’s necessary to move through it to get unstuck. Thank you for this piece Evan.
I would absolutely love to hear your thoughts on this piece as well as on the new "How to integrate this" section!

I feel your writing deep in my soul but I don't know why. I'm in the only place I know to be.

“If it hurts so much you might have to let it go multiple times”. I am so there right now. Thank you for sharing this.
You’re welcome 💖
Worded differently, but the same, ‘If the pain was deep you will have to let it go many times’
I love the "How to integrate this" section. It adds practicality to sentiment.
