Letters to me....

I know your hurt.

Stop sugar coating your feelings, don’t try to hide them, to suppress them.

Embrace it. Feel it. Feel the pain.

Feel it in every limb of your body, every pore…. Every cell must ache.

Hurt for broken promises, hurt for memories.  Hurt for yourself.

Remember that their opinion of you doesn’t define who you are.

Never mind how long it lasted, it's normal to feel it as a lifetime.

Don’t jump stages, it's okay to be mad and it's fine to be sad. Don’t pretend it's okay.

So things don’t go as planned, that’s life…. And that's fine,

Lessons are the best thing you can't get from people.

Appreciate them, learn to accept them.

FORGIVE. Forgive them for giving up, forgive yourself for trying so hard.

Their lack of interest is oblivion, you ARE good enough. 

You'll find what your looking for, and when you do…. Hold on tight,

But for now, loosen up and just be ….

This is SO true and so well written. I learned the hard way that you cannot run from grief. It will catch you and slowly kill you. It will bring you to your knees and you just cant ignore and hold some things in. And once you accept it you feel loads better! :) Glad I stumbled across your work! You're a talent!

"Remember that their opinion of you doesn’t define who you are." That was my favorite line in this write... the entire write was awesome but that really stuck out to me. So true yet it's still so hard to get past those thoughts. Excellent write Alaska :)

Sin requested I read this Alaska.
The strongest message (for me) in this is 'Forgive yourself' but I think every reader can take something from this.
Well penned piece.

Their disinterest IS oblivion. Believe me, when you find someone who isn't disinterested - it makes all the difference :) Stay inspired!
