It's so normal to feel what you're feeling now. You've invested a lot of time and emotion into a relationship that is over. You made mistakes, your partner made mistakes, everyone is human. But it's apparently over. And you're depressed. It is so natural to feel this way.

But it takes time, because suddenly your life is different. All the things you enjoyed and took for granted are not there. An empty feeling takes its place. Sadness and remorse fill your thoughts. It's like grieving. It just takes a lot of time to get over. Be patient.

This is the time to be ultra good to yourself. Take yourself places, buy yourself things, eat goodies. Look in the mirror and say, "I love you, you're wonderful." Pamper yourself to the max. Let people do nice things for you. Work out. Exercize is extremely important.

Around the corner, waiting for you, is a new adventure. Opportunity awaits. Give yourself a break. Cut yourself some slack. One day you'll be looking back and saying, wow, I am so amazed! I thought it was the end and it was just the beginning.

One thing I know for sure about life is that it is full of surprises. Just when you least expect it, something really terrific happens. Be open to it. Watch for it. It's out there, headed your way.

Choices, it's all about choices.
