When everything falls apart, what pieces (if any) do you pick up?
Replies
I'm finally breaking away clean from my worst decision. I'm trying to decide on how or what is appropraite.
I'm kind of curious as to how you guys deal in these sort of situations, when it seems odd to not just stand still.
oh... in that case: The pieces that are a: mine and b: I care about having back. Creating new ones in the future.
Well so far I have gone back to the norm of what was before said decision was made. So far it is working out pretty well.
I hate to ask for more detail to help more - if you'd prefer to note me about it - I'm open to it. Usually I start clean [ after lots of agonizing ] and if I pick up any pieces - it's usually months/years later when I've had enough distance from the situation.
it's hard... because a clean break is easier, but sometimes I can't help but want go back and try to salvage some of what I just broke.
I guess it depends on the situation. my last major fall apart situation, I just had to let everything go. as much as I wanted to, I forced myself to make a complete break and not look back.
the pieces that fit in the new puzzle. figuring out which pieces still fit is never easy though. usually those close friends who i want to always be part of my puzzle.
Ai, Chicita (aka wordnerd) I need to not look back. I think I am almost ready to make the final step. This has been hard and far too long overdue.
it's hard baby girl, but not looking back worked for me. it took a long time, but I'm a stronger chola for it now.
either that or i run away really fast and pretend i have no idea what happened.

none. build new pieces, imo.
