There comes a time when you want to know
“What can I do to avoid making the same mistakes again.”
The question that (hopefully) allows you to dodge the ghosts of the past.
I had an enlightening weekend and realized there were elements within that might just be directing towards that place where I used to live.
I was talking with DE this week and told her we were supposed to be “Linear Beings” and not Time Travelers. Humans are meant to live on a timeline that proceedes to the future. Not one that constantly re-visits the past.
Then I realized that I was just like everyone else…and doing the same things. Old habits, old patterns, old bits and pieces of the tapestry being hung in the windows.
I conversed with X2 and asked a simple question. “Can you tell me, from your perspective, what I can do to not repeat the mistakes that doomed our marriage?”
(Gasp!? You asked an X that?) Yeah. I did that.
Today, I got the answers…took a few days.
I saw some very hard, very honest answers in there. I still see my self in those answers. I’ve made a lot of changes, but I still see that person that she put into words.
I love my DE - more than all words. I will work harder, become better and give more to not fall back into the past.
I am Linear.
I will move forward.
And I will not do it alone. I have a partner beside me, every step of the way.
