Bad News

February 27, 2007

Courtney, my girlfriend for the past 7+ months, finally broke it off with me sometime after midnight Friday morning. It took me a bit by suprise, but I also had to force the hand.

I simply realized how much of the rope I was holding onto and how little she wanted to keep holding onto her end. I am extremely broken hearted about this whole situation. She was a lot more to me than just a girlfriend...I thought she was everything I had been looking for.

Turns out I was wrong.

I spent the weekend at home in Fort Worth, surrounded by the love and comfort of my family. They loved her too.

I know there is light down the tunnel, I can already see it....but I still may close my eyes and stay in this dark place because it's the only thing I know for sure where I can protect myself for a while.

This quote from the movie "The Shawshank Redemption" gives me a bit of comfort too...I guess it kinda fits.

I have to remind myself that some birds aren't meant to be caged, that's all. Their feathers are just too bright... and when they fly away, the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up does rejoice... but still, the place you live is that much more drab and empty that they're gone. I guess I just miss my friend.

I'll write more about it sometime.....but I'm trying to keep myself busy.
