get over it

i still get that no so good feeling when weddings are mentioned. i met a young woman at dinner the other night who's getting married on 10/10/10. (we considering getting married on 8/8/08.) i was happy for her, but had to take a deep breath at the same time. malinda williams has been blogging on essence.com as she counts down to her wedding day. since today was her last blog before the big day this Saturday, i finally decided to check it out. i couldn't get through the whole thing before getting sad. i closed the window shortly after reading about her experience buying wedding bands. i found my wedding band, and remember the experience like it was yesterday. geez. i thought i would be over this by now.

its okay...its okay to feel how you feel...

just breath
and if you need to cry, laugh, yell, whatever...do that, allow yourself to feel so you can move forward whole

i know, i know. it's just hitting me so late you know? which is why i'm even mentioning it. i'm a little flabergasted. it's been a couple of months and for some reason this is the first time i've had these feelings. like a delayed reaction almost. it's most likely because i'm no longer mad or upset. but seriously, i'm ready to be done with this tho.

i feel your pain sweetie. it's been years since my divorce and sometimes i wonder what it would have been like had we stayed married. i honestly know the divorce was for the best, but the memories sometimes come back.

i completely agree with T.C's comment.

Love!
