Good evening Rok,

With the overwhelming detail that you present in your writings, it would be difficult to even imagine the hardships that you have faced prior and are currently going through. Thank you for sharing this with everyone and in doing so, I hope that you are finding closure within yourself.

While I have written about similar experiences in my life, I have never gone through the struggles and triumphs you've faced. There were several parts of your post that hit home for me. I won't touch on each one here, but being able to recognize that there are many sides to our own stories is a blessing that helps when the line between brilliance and insanity grows thin.

If nothing else, your posts do help others in countless ways. Personally, it shows me that other people can and do ponder similar things when questing for meaning and answers!~

Mahalo,
@shello

Re:”line between brilliance and insanity...”

That reminded me of this post I did a couple years ago - you might find it interesting...

As I started to read your post the first thing that popped to my mind is the fact that even if we could know ahead of time how things are going to turn out or we could understand why things happen the way they do, would you really do it differently?

Part of the ride is the journey. There have been countless songs that have covered this very fact. I think those songs can resonate really well with any of those circumstances. Just look up the lyrics for "The Dance" (unless you already know them) I think that touches on what I am trying to say more than my babbling could.

Another aspect is the fact that say you know what is going to happen or why something happened and you try do do something to fix it. Are you then being untrue to yourself or becoming a different person to fit some scenario that maybe wasn't supposed to survive in the first place?

Sacrificing who you are at the expense of following a path you think you are supposed to can be a very dangerous road.

I'm not trying to say anything about the situation one way or the other. I am just throwing out some stuff here :)

Who the fuck am I to dictate what purpose my wife served in my life, and mine in hers? Truth is, my experience with her was one beautiful beyond expectation, in which I loved and grew in ways I had no idea were possible. Any of these little delusional stories the mind would put together to try summarize the logical reasons for our course parting would only degrade that. Our time together was a full spectrum of amazing growth and experience.

There is no such thing as absolutes, infinites or eternal in the whole f%^#@ing universe. And you know it!

As for the 'stories' that we tell to our own minds all the time, yeah, these have none of those attributes above either. :)
