"When someone you know and love decides that their life no longer coincides with your own, take heart with the knowledge that you have already shared the lessons you had to offer in bringing clarity to the person involved. This may not be evident to you, but know like the seed sprouting under the surface of the soil the seed was planted and the growth is taking place. This isn’t easy to accept because you don’t realize that this person has also planted seeds in your soul’s garden that will sprout with new ideas and realizations that you needed to make. This process doesn’t happen overnight, but happen it does at the appropriate time. When this moment comes you realize that it all was a stepping stone to your next realization and growth. It takes the sting out if one can remain with this truth and believe and trust in the great subconscious working behind every action and reaction. The ugliness is a working out of unclear beliefs and truths all moving you forward to higher levels of understanding. Many get lost in the downward spiral of the conscious mind thinking them into near insanity which is another route to take, but a much more painful one."
