Cogito ergo scribo

There was this person who left a post on a forum asking how to move on from a broken relationship. She had been trying to let go and move on since one year ago and she is still hurting even till now. She then contemplated that she needs someone to give her happiness again and to help her out of this misery.

Then there was a lot of replies to her post, one of which is as follows:

No doubt it is more difficult to get yourself out of the rut in the beginning, and you may need a pull or push from family or friends to get going. As you move along you will start to feel better. There is really no white knight in shiny armour to sweep you off your feet and onto his white horse. Wait no more.

Yes, there's never a white knight. 贝 used the be the one who rescued me out of my misery. The result of that was that i fell so deeply in love and became so emotionally attached to him that i totally forget about loving myself.

So when the white knight became the demon, the princess was devoured alive. That's when she realises that only she can save herself out of the agony.

Happiness is our own, not something that is provided by others.
