Dog days are over!

There are times in everyone's life where you revelations that are so simple you wonder why it took you so long to figure it out.  Mine today came in the form of a thought... I finally realized that despite the emails and phone calls I have been exchanging with the ex, at the core of things, I am not what he wants at the moment.. I know, after 4 months of lamenting over the loss, I finally have enough emotion out of it to realize it in a clear " don't feel sorry for me" sort of way.  Not sure if that makes sense but a sense of heavyness lifts once you can admit that to yourself.  Of course I still wonder at times how some girls get rings in a year and I get the boot in 3 but that is a discussion for another day and time.  Today, I declare the dog days to be over!
