There are moments in life where you look back at a relationship and you look back at someone

and you see how badly they affected you and you see how much they literally destroyed you and broke your heart.

But then you realize that you would still do it all again.

And I wrote an episode on my stuff stack recently. You can see the link in my YouTube description.

I've been really getting into writing lately and this article talks about the concept of

taking someone back and going back to an old relationship or a toxic ex and realizing that

it's not because you're weak, that you're caving in and going backwards and trying a relationship again,

it's because you still have lessons to learn, and that's just a part of your divine plan and your divine destiny in this lifetime.

I'm a huge believer in everything really does happen for a reason,

and every single person in relationship that you experience in this lifetime is here to teach you

something extremely valuable. I've been in a lot of different situations with people and romantic

flings and long-term relationships that at the time I didn't understand why I had to go through

the pain, why I had to go through the heartbreak, why I had to experience someone that didn't

treat me right when I knew I had the best intentions and the most amazing heart.

I've come to understand that the version of you that you've experienced after that heartbreak, after that loss of a person that you really loved, is the doorway to your awakening, is the doorway to your spiritual growth.

And they are the catalyst for you to make massive changes in your life.

And you needed that person, most likely, in order to face your shadow side and truly do the

inner work and heal on such a fundamental level that you're never going to go through

the same type of pain again.

You're never going to repeat the same situation twice.

You will end up taking the

lessons you learned from that one person that destroyed you and ultimately be better and do better
