Time For a Good Cleansing

It's complete coincidence that the New Year has begun and I'm ready for a new start.  It's time for a life cleanse.  What a journey these past 2 years have been.  As I look back and reflect I wouldn't change what happened and what I went through for anything - it made me stronger and more confident, and for that I'll always be grateful.  But there comes a time when you must let go of parts of your past in order to really let yourself move on and enjoy your present and future.

Personally for me, this meant a complete online-social cleanse.  I decided that this was no small task and I was in charge of how I wanted this to happen.  This was no easy cleanse for me.  We had shared a friendship for many years before a relationship was ever in the cards for us.  I took a few days to reflect and look back at the good, new and exciting, not so good, sad and bad times "we" shared.  I put "we" in quotes because at a time there was a "we" but as life went on "we" became pulled apart and moved on with our lives in separate directions.

I've since started on a new path with a new "we" and as I'm learning and growing with this new "we" I'm finding a new happiness that's so scary and thrilling yet unbelievably beautiful and exciting.  I figured it's only fair to myself to fully let go and allow myself to move forward.  

Everybody is different which means everybody deals with their exes in different ways.  Some people need to completely cut off all communication.  Other's can stay friends or friendly.  Some never get  the closure they want while others get more than they asked for.  

My only advice is find what works for you.  
It's your life and you are in charge of how you live it.
Deal and cope in a way that makes you feel happy.  
Because when you're happy, you're beautiful!
