Time To Move On

Your goodbye scene is as impersonal as having a root canal done by a dentist you won’t see again. Enroute to the now familiar road to Boston’s Huff Memorial Airport, your achy breaky heart is just about to disintegrate. The heel did not even offer to hold your hand at the airport until your flight is announced. It is time to move on - physically and emotionally.

The surefire formula to scramble out of the pit is to keep yourself busy at home, work and play. But these out-of-the-box tips can hasten your emotional recovery.

* Do not hurry to replace your ex just to show him you are still a valuable commodity like those gold money clips.
* Spend more time with friends but don’t weary them with your sob story.
* Tape your deep-seated emotions and listen to yourself on the micro cassette recorder repated - you’ll get bored and grasp that what you’re going through isn’t a phenomenon.
* Take a break; vacation this summer with your girl pals.
* Dine on your favorite chows and exercise to the hiphop sound.
* If the emotional pain keeps up, see a psychiatrist to help you.

Your broken heart will heal in time, but you’ll experience bouts of hopelessness, anger, and guilt while mending. That’s part of the healing process. After a year or so, your heart will be fine with all the pieces in their proper places.
