The space between became heavy and dense with loneliness. Waking up next to someone and feeling miles away. Loving my friend and losing my sense of being a lover.
This is what happened for nearly seven months.
Then, I left. I left for Summer Arts. A month long intensive with 52 students, 7 teachers -- 60 of the most emotionally open, genuine, honest, and generous spirits I have ever had the privilege to work with. What a freeing and releasing month.
And on day two, I knew I wasn't going to be able to live with Jack anymore.
And on day five, Dave and I discovered each other's hearts.
And now, here I am, having broken up from Jack, and exploring this life-altering love that Dave and I have been blessed to have.
My quote from The Universe this Wednesday night:
"Sure, there have been surprises. Some, not so fun.
But you have to admit, Laura, with hindsight,
moving forward was actually easy.
Something worth remembering,
The Universe"
