This article confirms something that I have been feeling inside myself for some years now. There is something more to us all, and I am certain every one of us on this earth is connected somehow by invisible ties.

During my breakup, I came to a stage where I simply overwhelmed myself with so much pain, hate and sorrow that I simply didn't want to live anymore. I commanded my heart stop and poured my energy into making this happen while I lie on the sofa. Within minutes, my heart starts beating very erratically and each beat was so strong that I felt it was going to kill me, I felt like I was shutting down.

I managed to stop myself though, I can't remember what I did or thought but I managed to stop myself.
From that day I've been thinking about energy and thoughts. My thoughts and feelings that were so powerful (yet not actually real or happening) managed to create an energy that affected me in the real world causing real physical pain and endangered my life in a very real way.
From nothing I created a powerful life threatening energy, by sheer force of will.

What is a thought? Something we create from nothing. Thoughts create feelings, feelings that guide us, shape us. As you read my writing now you are saying the words in your head, creating them from nothing, so in turn this leads me to believe there is a plain of existence where our thoughts reside. Or rather, ALL thoughts reside, thus creating the connection between us all.

There were other, less dramatic events that happened in my earlier life that also made me sit back and think. The event mentioned above really confirmed it all to me.

One question I do ask though, Is how it seems to be that negative energy is far easier to harness and channel then positive energy? This seems to be a universal truth too. The empowerment you can gain from negative feelings like anger, hate, loathing, despair seem to far outweigh the positive counterparts...

Either way Eddie, you are right. There is far more to us then we can begin to imagine. I believe I can explore it more, and I intend to as I grow.

I’ve been with my current ex for a little over a year. Things started to get different recently and we broke up today. We both love each other with every ounce of fluid in our bodies and I’m hurting more than I thought anyone could ever understand. I have to beat the fact in my mind that maybe him & I aren’t good for each other even though I could have sworn to the gods we were made for each other. It hurts in more ways explainable but I must say that after reading various pieces of advice from your site I feel like I just might have a meaning without him after all. Even though he left me I composed a note to let him know how serious I am about working on life now by myself because I already know how big the possibility is that we might get back together. You can put this up by ‘anonymous’ if you please. I just feel so strongly that because love is universal & the reason why were here.. Someone will be inspired by this..

“I’ve literally cried until I was numb over the thought of loving you without you by my side. I could have sworn I found the meaning of love with you. You made me feel like life is worth it. & For you to hurt me burns deeper than you can ever imagine. I can’t even imagine that I’d let you hurt me again so I have to let you go for good so it doesn’t get worse in the future. We got so comfortable with each other that we forgot to love the right way. How can we ever spend years together ( like we planned ) if we can’t be comfortable together? I will always remember you & never forget you but up until we see what the future holds for us we need to be apart.

Love your Baby always,

I too fear being considerd the local froot-loop, but hey, I now happen to be in a state of nessicary & self inflicted “evolution” into.. well I’m not THERE yet but lets say I’m trying to re-boot, & i gotta lay it all on the line so here i go. Im not saying Im special I’m simply making the logical assertation after careful observiance of all persons in totallity I have come into contact with throughout my lifespan..
I have always had the sense that myself & all others are equiped with all one would need to thrive (untill thier wisdom had mounted & physical selfvs were depleated, completing THIS particular “round” of life) and yet we were not to the point in civilization where we could commonly access these abilities, simply put were much too primitive yet to use our brain to its full capasity, our growth mostly being stunted be our less evolved drive for immediate entertainment & lacking the inititive required in self educating. I cearly remember contemplating this 11 years ago, in a strangers front yard picking stickers out of my favorite (& only)summer dress. I was 5.
I honestly, truely had no clue that this was a little off the norm until recently, i was under the mis conception that philosophy, logic, psychology & spirituality were the cornerstines of everyones rational thoughts.
A little sheltered, went from home schooled to housewife in a breath, and quite possibly loosing my mind. ~ Thank You for your time
But hey, we’ll get there some day! You can start now by turning off the t.v. and reading a book!

unfortunately for me pain is the only emotion i feel,i wish i had anger or bitterness but for my butterfly all i feel is love.your words are inspirational and true, yet after having my heart crushed enough times,words are not yet the answer.i find self hate and suffering to be my only friend. crying my weakness and time my enemy.i dislike my ways with regards to love as im always the “loser” but not really because if you love with your whole self then no one can say it was a mistake,it just wasnt meant to be.

@ Cindy

If you think that the break up was the right decision, then it was.

Just keep in mind that you probably WILL get depressed and lonely sometimes, but it’s part of the process and it will pass.

Always keep in mind that you’ve made the right step toward the relationship YOU want.

I recently broke up with my boyfriend of ten years. we were always back and forth. He just keeps doing the same thing over and over. I just let him go. I am happy now, its only been two days now. I just a little scared I will start feeling sad and depressed as times goes on. What can I do if I was to feel so unsure of myself again.

I really enjoyed another one of your great articles. I went through a pretty tough break up last October. I discovered the book “The Secret” it helped me immensely, but I have unfortunately fallen back into a really bad funk. I am trying to find my way back to my true self. Trying to find my positivity again. I’m looking for some good meditation techniques if anyone has any suggestions. Thank you

I truly believe that all disease is created by our emotions, and beliefs, however, many of our “triggers” were formed when we were children, and all are controlled by our subconscious mind. That is why I believe so strongly in self-hypnosis, meditation and NLP; I believe they are the only way to understand and see what is hidden in the subconscious, and/or change it.

Great article.
