Topic: Break (02/06/06)
Today, I choose to break up with you. I have had enough. Yes, it is Valentine’s Day and all that, hearts, flowers blah, blah, blah. But I will say it again, “I have had enough.” There is no love here. I feel abused and used. When we first met everything was seemingly wonderful. We partied, drank, smoked and did whatever felt good at the time.You convinced me that the life you had for me was far better than I could ever hope for. The path you took me down was littered with deceit, broken dreams and a very skewered way of looking at the world. I lost me somewhere along the way. The years of pollution both to my mind and body took their toll. I finally realize that to be with you is death. I know now that was the plan. Funny how your modus operandi never changes, the same offers you make today you have been making since the beginning of time.

Today is the first day of my new life. I have found a new love and because he loves me so much, he already has purchased a gift for me. He bought my soul back. How about that? His love is conditional I do not have to lie, cheat or berate others to feel good about me. In fact I want to show others His love in the hope that they too will want a relationship exactly like the one I have with Him. He is teaching me about forgiveness and showing me how I can have the things I was searching for that kept eluding me with you. I have a new found happiness and peace is an added bonus.

So, I am saying goodbye and good riddance. You will not be missed.

Breaking up with Satan, what a great concept! I'd love to see this expanded, it's a wonderful idea.

Great idea! Very original, especially with the Valentine's Day tie-in.
