I Am A Broken Person

As many of you know i am, or should i say was, happily married. All that came crashing down in this past week. I learned my wife was having an affair and refused to end it.


That put me in the position of either I could leave her, or stay and be hurt for possibly the rest of my life. Either way i get hurt severely. So I had to be a man and tell her that we are not going to work out. I did that earlier today and I learn he has seen parts of her only i should be seeing. Unlike most i do not get mad but just sink further into the sadness and brokenness i am currently feeling.


It is then that she tells me that she still loves me and i just sink to me knees and a major part of me just dies right there. I cannot deny the fact i still love her. Yet she obviously does not love me or have the courage to admit it. So currently I am just sitting here, completely broken and hurt, writing this article to keep myself somewhat sane.


I cannot accept that God would let this happen so at this point i am almost to the point of denying his existence. If he would let this happen to me among the many other things that have gone wrong in my life then he cannot care for us as individuals. It is that simple.


The one good thing that has happened to me has been destroyed and a piece of it has pierced my very soul. I am sorry that this is not like my other articles but i cannot think about anything else besides this single topic. Pursue knowledge in order to see the signs to avoid hurt like this. I wish i would listen to my own advice. I will end this article before ruining your day.


I am not in any way a danger to myself or others so please do not worry about me. I just need some time to figure out myself before trying to make it work with another person.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
