Journal 22.9.2024 5.23 pm

Dear Journal,
When someone tells you they don't love you it makes you love them less. The feelings generated by Arun's betrayal has caused me to blame myself. But I am not solely to blame.
He gave me no reason to trust him. He didn't earn my trust.
Of course I still love him.
But I am hurt, flummoxed and sometimes sad.
Otherwise I'm in a generally gay mood.
Ma can be so threatening. She has been threatening to break my door down and of course I reacted. There must be something wrong with her. Her aggression is unwarranted.
Anyway I also shouted back. I really have to approach Ma and Buro's toxic behaviour more positively.
I met Debo and Reet today. Debo told me that when things like this happen just remove yourself from the situation instead of reacting. Of course I can do that and make it a habit.
The feelings generated by Ma and Buro are one of not being able to trust them, betrayal and anger and frustration.
I have to pay Arun back his money. Hopefully the jobs that I've applied for will work out.
I met Pkum yesterday. I really don't want to date him and I made it quite clear. I told him I just want to be friends with him. I think I'll reiterate it.
Arun brought a lot of growth in me. I am grateful to him for that. He taught me in a small way how to take care of myself and to love myself.
I'm reading a book that talks about not blaming yourself always for situations that are out of your control.
When someone doesn't love you back it's out of your control.
Arun is a lone wolf. 
Anyway I'm going out in some time. I really don't want to meet PKum that often. Even though he is sweet. I'd much rather go to Creative Adda. I'll make it clear to him.
Whatever job works out I shall do it well and to the best of my ability.
How am I feeling?
Hurt
Pained
Present
A little agitated
Slightly relaxed
A little happy
Hopeful
I am grateful for God's infinite love, grace and blessings on my life.
I am grateful for the books I'm reading.
I am grateful that I have friends. 
I am grateful for Qudsiya.
I am grateful for my family.
I am grateful for the food I eat.
I am grateful that Debo made me feel good today.
I am grateful for so many blessings and advantages I have that I take for granted.
I am grateful that God has endowed me with many good qualities.
I am grateful for the pleasant experiences of life.
I am grateful for the job that is coming my way.
Love,
Me.
