Damn it! Even the stars have aligned to berate me!

Remember: forgiveness is a big part of the process. Where have you been holding a grudge? While you don't need to invite this person back into your life, accept that s/he did the best s/he could with the resources s/he had, and work to let the bitterness subside. Hanging on to resentment is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.


Hahaha! This is my horoscope today! Damn it! It sucks, but it's sooo true!

That's awesome. Very wise words.

Mine are usually ridiculous.

It was an amazing epiphany to realize that my hatred and resentment towards BF and SM/OW was hurting nobody but me.  They could give a shit that I was hurt/mad.

I stopped taking the poison.  Fucking awesome.

A spin on one of my fav sayings.

A resentment is like pouring gasoline on someone and lighting yourself on fire.

Worst part? They have no clue you feel the way you do and could probably care less :)

That is when life gets easier, once that concept is grasped.  I know that it made mine easier and happier years ago!!! :)

My horoscope usually never makes any sense

That is too funny and yes, so true!!! I was in a life skills course and the trainer taught us that our lives are like gardens and we can grown weeds and tend to them and our garden isn't going to be that great or we can choose to plant and tend to the good seeds in our lives and we will have what we planted. We will on occasion have a weed and we will have to knowingly pull it out and toss it not water it. In class we were not ever allowed to even talk about exes and grudges etc. I loved and hated it at the same time. It is so true though and hard to do. Sometimes my garden is a weedy mess that is strangling out the pretty flowers I keep trying to tend to. Ugh!

I thought I had forgiven my DH ex, she had been a friend of mine who cheated with my now ex-husband (later I married her husband, she is still waiting... Just been told that he isn't interested in moving in with her and her kids, he likes his life).  Anyhow, obviously I haven't forgiven her... I guess ignoring her isn't the same thing. I figured this aout around about 2 months ago when I exploded on her ( I hadn't even spoken to her in a little over 2 years, literally, not even txts) in my front yard and let her have it. I really guess I wasn't over it. I texted her and apologized for my behavior... Her response was she was glad to see I was human and some other stuff.... I wasn't trying to be friends but we started txting to just take care of the kids as we are co-parenting even if we are in different homes. It took all of a month for us not to be talking again. It was stupid and texted a bunch of idiotic things to me and we weren't talking again! Then one day she just texted me about the kids and then last week she walked up to my car, I was so mad. I DO like to pretend she doesn't exist. I suppose I better figure out that whole resentment thing some time in the near future.
