It wasn't long ago when I got my heart broken. But sometimes it feels like it was just yesterday.

For too long, I allowed myself to be in a situation that constantly made me feel like I wasn't good enough, and that I had to constantly do and say things to be accepted. Thankfully, it eventually came to an end. At the time my heart wasn't ready to say goodbye, but my mind was.
Some days I feel like I'm over the whole situation. It's all in the past. It doesn't bother me anymore, and I've forgiven those that hurt me. But on other days I question how anybody could treat another in such a way, be so aware of their insecurities and use them to their advantage, and I have to forgive them all over again.

But just like with every cloud, this one had a silver lining, too.😉​

So you can imagine my surprise when He told me that I was the one at fault! 😨​
