It's so strange seeing Facebook memories for things that I previously posted. I tend to think back to the past as better than life is now but then I see these and laugh because I was absolutely miserable when I was with my ex. He made my life absolutely insane and horrible. Yeah there were good times but the bad far outweighed the good. Looking back on it I am still "lucky" I'm lucky for knowing the capacity I have for love, to love unconditionally and I am lucky I now know what I know about my own strength. I remember how much I had to hide and how exhausting it was. How I would hurt myself because of this 300 pound weight I had on my back. I'm not writing this for sympathy or whatever. I'm just writing this for myself. So it gets sent to Facebook memories and in another year I'll be able to look back and say wow look how far you've come 🙏🏻🤗 #timehop #facebookmemories #idratherbesingle 💁🏼❤️ (at Massapequa, New York)
