When divorce happens or a break up occurs, we often times believe that it was a failure or that “I” failed. I like to compare relationships to running a race. Races, like relationships have a beginning, a middle and an end. Some races, like relationships are sprints others are marathons. Sometimes we win and sometimes we come in last place. It doesn’t mean we failed, it just means the race ended. Everything in life is a cycle. With the closing of one door, another opens. Are you looking towards the next race? Going to take time and heal some injuries? Get a trainer for support? It’s up to you, but remember you didn’t fail, you just crossed the finish line.
