Broken

Hey, first of all you need to know that i'm fairly drunk and I apologise for any mistakes I make and don't notice.

I've had a lovely evening in Finn's with Caro and Stu, where they met quite a few of my important friends here in Ecuador. Between us we drank about 25 cuba libres - I'm sure I only drank 4 or 5...!?

Whilst dancing foolishly my moon pendant came off...I found it almost as soon as I realised, but was gutted to find it broken...the piece of shell broken into 4 pieces. This is very significant to me as I bought it about an hour before I walked out on Ritchie and also because the moon is a very important symbol within my life (particularly at that specific time - I'm fairly sure it was a full moon the night I left).

There is a part of me tonight that knows that it's breaking is significant and that it shows that the past is long gone and the future is beckoning, but the rest of me is gutted and feels like crying. I will get it repaired...but it will not be the same pendant that helped to give me strength in the dark times of leaving ritchie after almost 8 years. I guess it will become a symbol of my future...one in which I will continue to make great leaps...alone.
