For moving on and letting go 💕🌟

Hi friends! 🍋

Lots of situations we deal everyday can be uncomfortable and painful. The end of a relationship is one of them.

It sucks… I know. Letting go of someone we used to love is not easy.

One of the things that helped me a lot when I was facing a breakup was journaling my thoughts and feelings.

When I broke up with my ex, because he cheated on me, I got lost. I was feeling very insecure, not feeling I would be enough to any person.

I tried to put the blame on myself, because if he decided to cheat on me, it was because of me.

But then I started to write journals. All the lost thoughts that I was keeping inside of my head I put in the paper.

It helped me to read it out loud and see the big picture. Most of the thoughts I was feeling was not right or fair.

The reason of the breakup was not me. I couldn’t blame myself. I gave my 100% everyday, it’s not my fault if my ex couldn’t appreciate it.

Listen, if you are facing a breakup because your partner cheated on you, never blame yourself! They didn’t cheat on you because you were not good enough.

It doesn’t matter how good you are, how beautiful you are… if you are not with the right person, every single think you do will not be validated.

Then you ask: but Thamy, how do I know if I’m dating the right person?

The answer is simple: if you know who you are and what you deserve, you know if you are spending your time if the right person. It works for both relationship or friendship.

The difficult part is getting to the point you know yourself enough to value your feelings.

I had a few breakups, I didn’t find the right person fast. But every single heartbreak I turned that lost feeling into learning more about myself.

The point of the journal is writing down all the feelings inside of your head and use them to learn more about what you deserve.

Best of luck! And if you need to talk, I’m here for you. ❤️

... Read moreMoving on from a breakup can be a challenging and emotional journey. It’s important to recognize that healing takes time. One effective method for processing your feelings is journaling. Writing about your experiences allows you to articulate emotions that may otherwise feel overwhelming. In your journal, consider prompts that help explore what was unfair in the relationship or reasons your ex wasn't the right person for you. Reflect on the love you gave and acknowledge that you are not at fault for the breakup. Remember, it takes two to make a relationship work; if a partner chooses to cheat, it’s a reflection of their choices, not your worth. Use this opportunity to redefine what you desire in future relationships. Think about what you want and deserve moving forward. Another valuable exercise is envisioning your ideal relationship. List down qualities that are non-negotiable for your future partner. This clarity empowers you to seek healthier connections. Each breakup can be a learning experience, helping you discover more about yourself and what truly resonates with your needs. If you're struggling, don’t hesitate to reach out for support. Talking to friends or a therapist can provide additional perspectives and coping strategies. Ultimately, focus on self-care - engage in activities that bring you joy and happiness as you embark on this healing journey.

Letting Go and Trusting God 🤍🫰🏾
There comes a point in our walk with God where we have to release the burdens we were never meant to carry. Whether it’s resentment toward those who have hurt us, disappointment in ourselves, or the weight of past mistakes, holding on only keeps us stuck. The Apostle Paul reminds us in Philippians

Letting Go Isn’t Giving Up
Sometimes the hardest part isn’t holding on. It’s knowing when it’s time to let go. This one’s for anyone caught between what they hoped for and what they know deep down. Letting go doesn’t mean you failed. It means you’re choosing peace, clarity, and growth. And one day, it’ll all make sense. 🌿

Letting Go Isn’t Giving Up
So often, we confuse letting go with failure. We think if we release something—or someone—we’ve lost. But letting go isn’t about quitting; it’s about choosing peace over chaos, healing over hurt, and growth over being stuck. It’s an act of courage, not weakness. True letting go means accepting what

Inner Peace & Letting Go
Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is pause, breathe, and release what’s behind you. Healing starts with acceptance of where you are, what you’ve been through, and the hope that better is coming. This is your reminder to stay grounded in the present and trust what’s ahead. #NoteToSelf

The Grief of Letting Go
I almost had a relapse into my old life. Nostalgia almost made me backtrack but something inside me said no it’s a trick. It’s OK to reminisce on old feelings, but it’s not OK to run back to comfort. You have to remind yourself why you can no longer be around certain spirits. You have to remind you
