Day 26- things you’d say to an ex

This is too personal and I wouldn’t like to refer to only one person, so I will say things which relate to my relationships’ partners in general, not that they are many.

Thank you for accepting me as who I am, with all my flaws in my character. For getting to know me as I am or at least the level in which I give you myself. Thank you for your understanding, for the patience, for the kindness. I want to tell you that I remember the moments we share, I cherish them and keep them close to me. Thank you for being part of them. I know that there are moments when my childishness was putting to test your resilience and patience, but you were so understandable and kind. You taught me how to be not ashamed of who I am, how I should be proud of myself, how everything has a way to feel into place in the end.

I want to give your my gratitude for showing me that the world is not only black and white, but there is so much to be seen, if I only open my eyes for it. For giving me a chance to explore and find the little joys in the day, even in one ordinary day. Thank you for showing me the magic.

Thank you for the time when you gave me reasons not to be so naïve, not to take everything as it is. Showing me the meaning behind the words and the silence that doesn’t need to be filled with words. Giving me reasons not to act on a whim and to take precautions, to know what is at stake and what is worth fighting for. When I should fight and when I should give up, when I should cease to chase ghost that are no longer there.

Thank you for teaching me that I should put myself first, before anyone else and that there is no point of changing myself for someone. Neither, should I change the other person.

Last, but not least, thank you for showing me that sometimes even with the strongest power in the world something ‘temporary ‘ can’t be changed into something ‘permanent ‘.

Thank you for your lessons, dear lover.

Hope you remember me.
