And it didn't take me 10 years to realize that.

It took me like two years to realize that.

I got over it after like a year, year and a half.

But then I felt really revitalized about the whole thing ending and where my life was headed.

It was a fork in the fucking road.

And I started creating experiences for myself that I could have never had if we had stayed together.

And I did that on purpose.

I said, well, given that we're not together, what's something I would have never done?

Moved to France, didn't I?

I fucking moved.

I would have never done that if we were together.

So things like that, you start to say, you know what, I've given myself a life that I just could have never given myself if we were together.

Then you look back and you think, thank fuck for that.

Thank fuck.

Fuck, he left me.

It doesn't feel like it now, but I can guarantee if you do the right things for yourself, if you start doing kind things for yourself, if you start filling the void with things that are going to help you grow and blossom and be happy, you will look back and say, wow, that was a fucking testing time in my life.

But look at the person I became because of that fork in the road.

All right.

Thank you so much for sending that in.

I fucking feel your pain, but I'm excited for your future.
