I used to think that there is one true love for us, then I asked this one simple question: If she is my one true love, then why are we divorced? Why did she stray? The answer of course is that I was wrong.
     Moving on is a bummer, and some people stuggle with it for years. Most I talk to, even if they hate their ex to the bottom of their gut, they also almost always admit they still have a love for them. I still love my ex a lot and the pain of our divorce haunts me.  I never have peace in those quiet reflective moments for the spectre of our past together haunts me.  I will and surely my new love is in me at those moments too, comforting, healing, lifting me up and nurturing the bud of happiness into full bloom.

                                     As far as finding new love goes...

     Next springtime will once again bring beauty, hope and rebirth to the world, just like last year. Last years spring was beautiful and it burst forth with hope and dreams. But does the beauty it held mean that THIS years spring will not also be beautiful, uplifting and full of hope in its own unique way?

     Love for me is like that. I love my ex, I suppose I always will. She is last years springtime, full of beauty, hope and for a time, we danced together and made love and my heart filled with her. But that spring is gone...
     Now I am living a new spring wtih a new love, and she is beautiful and wonderful in her own unique ways. I love her and the garden she put in my heart has its own beauty and emotions. Those emotions are not replacing, no more than last years spring can replace this one. But simply because the love I feel for her is not last years spring does not mean it is not just as intensely beautiful, wonderful and fulfilling as last years
