Destined to be

chapter 60

Estella: " It's not your fault . It's their fault they are not aware of what they have lost . "

Emily: " Who are you kidding ? "

Estella: " I am not kidding . You are a strong little girl . Just have faith . "

Emily: " You know today I was wondering maybe if the father of my child knew that he had a child he would have been here with us . It's weird because I miss a person I have never met . At least I would not have been alone . I could have a shoulder to cry on and strong arms to protect me and hold me in weak times . . . . . . . I feel so alone . I feel like I will get crushed under the burden of my problems . "

Estella: " Just remember the one who breaks you can never heal you . . . . "

Emily: " I don't know . Maybe he is a wrong person but the least he could do is apologize . That will also make me feel better . He is guilty after all . . . . ."

Estella: " You must let go of the idea that you can heal only if the person who hurt you apologizes or regrets their actions . Instead of laying blame on them for your current situation , you must hold them accountable for their past actions and take ownership over your present situation . They don't get that kind of power . They don't get to hold you hostage to the pain they put you through . And here's a secret : Many times , they don't even feel they have that power . You give it to them in your mind . You give it to them by getting stuck on the painful moments you think they caused .They didn't cause the pain . They woke it up within you . Don't get me wrong I am not saying that you chose to feel pain as a result of their painful action . What I am saying is that their power does not extend past that finite moment . "
