Standing at the Crossroads of Relationship Endings

If we are bound by others, on our journey of life, then perhaps relationships are divinely ordained. But not all relationships last forever. 

When a relationship ends, the bond of two is now broken, leaving a hollowness that echoes with emotional hurt and uncertainty of what lies ahead. Although relationships may be our greatest learning experiences, the hardest relationship we will ever have to face is the one we have with ourselves—especially when we are standing at a crossroads, left broken wide open where the road of love has ended.

When we take the time to honor endings, explore our emotions, and heal the split within, then we are open to receive a new beginning, liberated from the past. It all starts while standing at the crossroads of the past and the future.

This crossroads of the planned life you knew and the unknown life that lies ahead is where your healing journey begins. Even though you may feel as though your life has fallen apart, perhaps left immobilized to move forward, the journey of life always marches on. Life will continue, but in a different way. This journey will no doubt have many twists and turns, where powerful obstacles may seek to block your way. But hidden within the journey is the ultimate treasure of finding a new relationship with yourself and truly finding a new beginning.
