my heart

So writing this blog can be tough sometimes. I’m always feeling the constant struggle with just how personal to get on here. While this isn’t a super personal blog, it’s also not completely void of the intimate goings on in my life. And when something big happens in my life, good or bad, I always feel the need to share it here with you all. So that’s what I’m going to do. It’s been a rough couple of weeks for this girl. Things did not work out with that boy I’ve been seeing for the last six months. And my poor little heart hurts. Breakups are always terrible, aren’t they? And this one is no different. Of course I’m sad, but the universe makes no mistakes and things happen for a reason and I know I’ll be okay. The search for love isn’t easy and it’s wrought with heartache and sometimes people let you down. But maybe it’s true, maybe things fall apart in order to make room for better things to fall together. I certainly hope that’s what’s going to happen. And until then I will heed the advice of a very good friend who told me to “be kind to myself.” So that’s what I’m going to do. I’ll be having some lovely NYC bloggers over to my apartment tomorrow for a little dessert party I’m throwing with Natalie (there will be more on that soon, I promise). And other than that I’ll be relaxing and taking care of me. Have a fabulous weekend and I’ll see you on the other side, my sweets.

Amy– you are such a beautiful soul! I love the advice your friend gave you… keep doing that. Thinking about you, & wishing it would’ve worked to connect while I was in NYC. Have the best weekend– relax & do something that makes you smile. xx (see you in January!)

aw, lady, sorry to hear that! But you know what they say – everything turns out right in the end, and if its not right, its not the end. You have great things ahead for you.

All I can say is his loss. Sounds like you’ve got your wits about you and don’t need a pep-talk so much… so I guess all I can say is what an idiot that guy must have been to let a dime like you go. Thinking of you…

Honey, it’s a bowl of dicks. I’m sorry you have to be sad right now because you deserve sunshine and joyful moments always.

Big hugs, dear sweet bloggy friend. I hope the universe sends many many tiny joys into your life right now as you move forward into the life you are meant to live.

thanks for letting this space be whatever it is. open heart and all the details in between.
boo on aches, but yay! on great friends and desserts (and a few cocktails) to help the aches heal much quicker.

You know, when I broke up with my ex I felt miserable for a long time. I kind of knew all this about things happen for a reason, but I was hurting too much to actually embrace it. But eventually, with help from friends I got around accepting and enjoying my solitude and, like your friend said, taking care of me. Three months later I met my husband
So this just goes to say that while “things fall apart in order to make room for better things to fall together” may sound a bit too theoretical and idealistic, there is every reason to truly, TRULY believe it. I hope these days are kind to you as your heart heals. I think you are already receiving lots of love and good energy from many places, which you deserve. Take care

It is true. It will happen. And I love you.

Sorry to hear you’ve been hurting. I will be sending good thoughts your way!

Something happened with my blog reader and the last thing I saw from you was your smokin’ hot mom. So I decided to pop over to your real website and what a week I missed! You broke up with the boy…you got skinny…you found cute boots.
I am so sorry that things didn’t work out with the boy. But you seem to have a good attitude about it and give yourself license to feel whatever you feel for a little while.
Better days ahead for you, my dear.

So, so true. I know how you feel. I’ve been traveling to far off places and climbing mountains trying to get to the other side. I’m sure I’ll see you there. The journey is everything.

I should probably say what is expected of a a girlfriend like, “You were too good for him!” But really I just wish I could give you a hug. Hang in there buddy.

Loves and hugs for you, my sweet sister wife! XO

[...] and emails (and even one real life snail mail card!) in regards to my recent weight loss and breakup. You guys really are the best. And I appreciate the love and kindness more than you will ever know. [...]
