"Life becomes easier, when you learn to accept the apology you never got" `Robert Brualt
For the first time in a month, I did not hold my finger on the pepper spray as I left my car to walk to my apartment. I did not look around me as I walked through a store or the mall, and I know I will be able to go to bed and not have to wake up in a panic at 4:00 a.m. because Charlotte is barking at my door. For the first time I feel safe and not because the law protected me, but because I am brave, strong, and of course, I have luck on my side (just throwing it out there)!
Today, I learned I was never going to get the only thing I ever wanted though this journey I have been going through and that’s an apology. However, I learned that the desired apology is not what I need to make this okay--I learned to love what I have been though and know something truly amazing is around the corner! I learned when God closes a door, he will always open a window.
Ladies, we have been through heartbreaks and we have learned to love, and to hold on to love, but think about that time you were head over heels in love with someone, and he broke your heart-or you broke his.
Remember that love you felt--it will happen again, but know this: one day you are going to fall in love and it will be the most amazing love you have ever felt. But along that journey until you finally find that love, remember the moments, because even in the bad there is always good. I don’t regret any love I ever felt. I don’t regret falling in love. I don’t regret anything that once made me feel happy. And you shouldn’t either!
Here is my advice: never be scared to fall in love, and never be scared to fall in love more than once. Love is a beautiful thing, and I promise those apologies you never get-- when you felt hurt, scared, or heartbroken, a little thing called love, will replace that apology you never heard.
Break hearts, take names, and again never be scared to fall in love.
XOXO,
Molly Francis
