AND EVERYTHING CAME BACK....BUT BACK TO ZERO

I've been trying to avoid writing for days. I don't want to because the words and everything so far seems so difficult and heavy to even pen down. But today I find myself writing not because I want to but it's because I feel if I don't put things down I'm never going to feel better; this heavy heart won't set me free.

So here it goes, do you remember the love of my life Eric,  Yep! He's back after his two year mission in Nigeria and guess what, when I saw him, I was angry not because I hated him but because all the love I felt for him was coming back to me; everything was coming back again and I felt weak. Anger was the only emotion I could show to be strong. Everything is great, we are back together and very happy. What??? Wait.. That was one of my dreams typing.

Now back to me,  things are messy and clearly he got himself a new girlfriend, he's happy and moving on. In fact he's doing way better than I am. I was still holding on to him and the possibility of how everything will change when he comes back,  the possibility of how we will get back together again; so imagine how I felt lwhen he came back and I realized I've lost him for good. I could actually feel his animosity towards me but he was still trying to be nice to me. Its like I could literary feel him saying its over between us and I don't have to care for you let alone worry about you but others are telling me to so I'll be nice to you. I won't front up here and say I'm okay with everything. Nope. I wish things was different.

So I'm left heart broken, there are days that I feel so good,  there are days that I don't even want to wake up or do anything. There are days where the tears starts flowing without any explanation because it doesn't need one anyway. My heart and soul can tell clearly that I've lost everything. One thing I've heard a 1000 times this past few days is "Move on".

People say move as if you can just snap your fingers and everything will be back to normal. What if the person is worth fighting for??  Wait that was another dream typing. I  have a few real people in my life who can actually relate to my situation and give me a better advice. Two words I have heard from the realest people that I probably look back to every time I'm feeling the heat is "Patience and Time".

Honestly I don't feel good but I have no other option than to go with the flow... You know, going through the motion. I had a few words with Eric... Lol not few words. Majority of the discussion ended with me being hurt and crying. Apparently Eric said his new girlfriend is into him just like I'm into him. Seriously he used I'm into him???  I've loved you for 2years and still counting. We've been through a lot and I'm still here,  you can't classify that as being into you.. It's love. I felt so disrespected when he said that but well who am I to react. I've been labeled "angry Nancy" so I kept my cool.

How do you stop loving someone?? Where should I put all the love I feel for him. There are days I wish I could get instant answers and solutions to everything I'm going through. I love him so much so it's hard for me. I don't know what I'm doing with my life now. Everyday I pray for strength to endure all this and get the old me back. I've lost who I am and I don't know where I'm heading too. But just like the realest people in my life told me, patience and time,  so I'll leave it to these two to do the magic. Until then I'll still be the looser Nancy.... "The Clown" the one who lost everything.

TIED TOGETHER WITH A SMILE

Seems the only one who doesn't see your beauty Is the face in the mirror looking back at you You walk around here thinking you're not pretty But that's not true, cause I know you..Hold on, baby, you're losing it The water's high, you're jumping into it And letting go... and no one knows That you cry, but you don't tell anyone That you might not be the golden one And you're tied together with a smile But you're coming undone I guess it's true that love was all you wanted Cause you're giving it away like it's extra change Hoping it will end up in his pocket But he leaves you out like a penny in the rain Oh, cause it's not his price to pay Not his price to pay...

IF YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN FED LOVE WITH A SPOON, YOU WILL LICK IT OFF A KNIFE AND YOU WILL BLEED. This is one of the favourite quote of my friend Sam. To able to understand this quote, I personally feel that you must go through unrequited love and any form of abusive relationship. t he beginning is this magical, amazing time. But the beginning is not built to last. After the beginning comes the real relationship and if it’s not a match, then things will devolve quickly. What are you really invested in here? A lot of the times we’re in love with the potential of what could have been, not the actual person.  It’s so easy to project our wants and fantasies onto someone, especially someone you hardly know. this devastation we experienced is because of what the other person represented to you. what you’re lusting for isn’t the person, it’s how it used to be. You miss the beginning of the relationship, and you hold onto it as proof that you guys were in love once upon a time. Everyth...

THE GRACE OF GOD

A single picture became my motivation to the beginning of this journey. I never wanted to get my picture taken because I knew I had packed on some weight. There came in the comments from my course mates telling me how fat I’ve gotten and so on. Some even went to the extent of saying I’m not coming to class because I said I’ve gained weight; that was sad.  The comments they passed did hurt but it didn’t motivate me to change my lifestyle. As time went by, I got so used to their fat body shaming and comments. But what they didn’t know was the fact that I had already given up on myself: so nothing they said was actually going to push me to change. Even with that I’ll start eating healthy for a minute, hit the gym and give up on that same week. Until my course mate took a picture of me when I wasn’t looking after I had instructed him not to take any picture of me.  A single picture became my motivation to the beginning of this journey. My first look at the pictur...
