Healing yourself is the most important part of this journey.
If I can leave you with one piece of solid advice, it would be to heal yourself. If you don’t, you will carry your baggage into each relationship that follows your divorce.
We all come to the table of life with wounds that we picked up from past relationships, our childhood, and other experiences. And, we are the only ones that are responsible for healing ourselves.
Take this time to turn inward and honestly review yourself. Do you carry around fear of rejection or abandonment? Learn how to love yourself so much that you can rely on yourself to fill your emotional cup.
The moment you learn to be the sole provider of love, you will no longer seek that love and emotional fulfillment from outside sources. And, the moment you meet the right person, you can move forward knowing that you will not put that burden on that person to make you happy because you already make yourself happy.
Not only will that allow the opportunity for you to love that person unconditionally, but you will take away the chance of building up a wall around your heart or any resentments against them that could break down that relationship.
