Manning up and moving on

In life people will come into our lives and leave a mark of somesort, these people may be around a long time or just for a small while. Friends. Family. Boyfriends. Girlfriends, or even just flings or acquaintances. Whatever the reason it will affect us or our lives one way or another for the better or the worse.
In our lifetime we will get hurt by someone, by one of those mentioned. People will lie to us. People will reject us and some will break our hearts. We will all have our heart broken atleast once. Some will face heartache more than once. But what is sure for all is that we will all have a broken heart one that will be the all time break. There will always be an absolute heartbreak for us all. It can come at any age and for any reason but what is different about this shattered heart is that it will change you. It will make you strong. You will reach a low to get it all back again and when this terrible heartbreak starts to mend it makes itself ten times harder and foolproof. Afterall it wouldn't take all the time it does to mend if it was just going to make itself back to the weak old model as before.
We need to face the facts of life. Not everyone will like us. Plenty won't love us and some will make us feel like a waste of space. We will all experience rejection of somesort. We will all feel unwanted, and ugly at some stage in our lives. Some will deceive us and stab us in the back. Friends who we never thought would leave will disappear. Relationships will end and people we hold so close we go back to being strangers. We will all feel alone at some point in our lives. There will be struggles a many. This is all on the cards.
So what are we going to do. Cry, cave in, beg the ones that reject us to give us a chance because we will change. Chase those who have walked away from us. Linger around wallowing in self pity. Embark on self destruction. Give up. Hide away. Let our confidence reach rock bottom. Give ourselves to anyone just because we are desperate for love, for attention. Never trust. Never appreciate good?
I dont know about you, but none of that seems attractive to me, nor would I be interested in anyone who let that happen to themselves.
What is the point. Self pity and wallowing would prove them right and proving people wrong is one of lives greats. Who cares. Everything comes down to you. Trust you. Appreciate you. Love you. Dont waste time on anyone who makes you question yourself or who doesnt make you feel good and loved. Lifes short and at the end do you want to have let others have a control over your life and your destiny. Step out your shoes and look in at yourself and your life. Would you be proud of what you do if someone you truly loved was doing the same. Self pity and sadness about other peoples actions onto us will only ever hurt us.
So stop now. Man up. Move on. Get over it. There isn't enough time to dwell on it. Focus on the ones who do love you. You will know who they are trust me. I know that I will be following my own advice in future and giving my time to the ones who I never have to question. No more wasting time. Remember you have to put number one first, you are your greatest critic in life
