For some reason I found myself flipping it over and and discovered, written in her hand, a very brief note (no more than a sentence) which must have dated from when we broke up and she gave me the picture, remembering that she had drawn it for me, and thinking I might still like it. I was suddenly flooded with feelings I though I had long sense worked past and, for a moment, I was on the verge of tears due to the sheer overwhelming nature of being confronted with all that I had lost. So I turned the picture back over, forced the moment to end, and then packed it away to move; sometimes that's all we can do. <br />Just remember that you don't simply feel adult and capable, strong and attractive - you ARE each of those things, through the good and the bad - even when it doesn't feel like that is so. <br />BDSPAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
