Time will tell....

Time.....
I have always been told time heals all wounds, its my best friend and my worst enemy, and time is valuable and shouldnt be wasted.

I'ts been 5 years since my divorce and time has been a blessing. I wasn't heartbroken after my divorce, as I wanted it and he was an abusive man. Within those last few years I was granted valuable time, not to be wasted..but to find out who I was then and am now. I learned what was important in life and what should be valued in a relationship. I had time to grow as a person, work on my short comings, and find a new insight with life.

I couldnt stand the phrase, time heals all wounds, but again time is what I needed...Then I was so full of misery that I didnt think anything could ease that pain. Time has erased the pain from my last relationship, but kind enough to leave me with wonderful memories and many lessons learned. Time fixed what I thought was the unfixable...

Now that time has opened my eyes to a new start at life, given me time to understand my past...and value my future. Time gives us the ability to change what we dont like about ourselves and the chance to improve our shortcomings to be a better partner. This time...I will take time appreciate this special person...I will be more compromising, patient, understanding, open-minded, stronger, better listener, a valued friend and lover. I'm not saying that I won't make mistakes, cuz thats my middle name..but I will try to lessen them and not make the same ones.


The whole reason for this thread...I wondered, since most of us have had a prior relationship and we're looking for a new one. Have you learned things that maybe you did wrong in the past ones to make sure your next relationship doesnt fall for the same reasons.
