If winter wasn't cold and bitter, how could we appreciate the warmth of summer? and my friend believe it or not,
there is one feeling that is even worse than what your asking about, getting over the death of a loved one,
this can lead one to ask ones self, what kind of a monster am I, how come it hurts only when I think about it, but I'm not thinking about it lately. As long as we're alive we are capable of just about any thing put in the right situation, and this includes being vulnerable to feelings and responses that are not always within our understanding or exceptance of ourselves, why do break ups feel like hell? maby because the thought of going through life all alone is the worse hell any one can imagine, I'll leave you with this thought, ( to be alone is to be by your self, to be lonely is to be with some one else, and still feel like your by you self ) pray you never have that feeling . . .
