This is never more apt than when we find ourselves in a state of emotional distress after a relationship break up. Every bone in our bodies tells us that clinging on to our relationship is surely the only way to cure ourselves of the terrible affliction of emotional pain. In reality nothing could be further from the truth because our emotions have a purpose which is to motivate us to take action; move away from the source of pain.
Walking away from a relationship does not have to be a "forever" decision because nothing in life is set in stone. It is much easier to walk away knowing that if you decide to return to the relationship that option is open to you.
