She broke up with me over the phone.
It’s easier – she said it’s not working, and we can still be friends.
It didn’t seem real, not after five years, and yet, it was inevitable.
Sometimes you don’t want to see what’s right in front of you, hoping that it will go away…
It never does, only comes back to bite you.

Her leaving me for another man, or me being too scared to end it when I knew she cheated?
We all this one moment of betrayal, this one foul twist of fate, one moment that trust was ruined for good, the one heinous deed that leaves a scar…
Or maybe, it still hurts, but the worst part is…
You lose trust in people.
Not only in that person and what they did it to you, but somehow, drags the rest of the world down with it…
And so we let the opportunity pass as by, we let good friends go without ever taking the chance to properly them, we let new experiences sail by unexplored, we dismiss the best of new ideas like scrap…
All because of the one anomaly, the freak, one outlier destroy one hundred acts of beauty, of kindness, of true grit and selflessness…
Because good deeds and great people and and true things, they are everywhere and they outnumber the rest – by a long shot!
So why do we give them so much focus, attention they don’t deserve?!
We must turn it around – for the sake of fairness and our own sense of deserving, to be happy, enough and belong.
