Turn the other cheek

I am TRYING very hard to let some things go. Somone hurt me preety deeply recently, and I sat and dwelled on it for about a day. It was eating me up inside to the point that I felt sick! When I tried to discuss how I felt, all I got back was denial and finger pointing. Well...I can sit here for the next week and stew about it, worry about it, and generally feel bad about it.....or I can just pick up and go on and let it go. Turn the other cheek, so to speak. Man, letting things go (the things that REALLY hurt you) is SO hard to do! I mean, it's a lot of work to physically remove the hurt from your mind and not bring it up, not think about it, and not feel bad. I worked hard last night at trying to make myself feel better over it - kept myself really busy all the way until bedtime. It kind of worked. It's just so hard when you find out the most important person in your life thinks that you are very flawed, and really doesn't like or respect you very much. I start feeling very low about myself and my self-confidence plummets. I talk to myself and tell myself what a good person I really am, but it really doesn't mean much coming from myself!

BUT, I have let it go. This entry will be the last I make mention of it, I hope. I am moving on, in many many different ways.
