Can the end of a relationship be a gift?
When talking about past relationships, people almost always remember how wonderful the beginning was (the honeymoon period), how painful the end was, and question what happened in between. In counseling, couples often they say they wish they could go back to when it was more fun and harmonious. But can the end of a relationship be valuable too?
Yes.
The distress experienced at the end of a relationship is in the form of resistance to new circumstances or feelings-loneliness, sadness, and often a misbelief that we did something wrong because it ended. It's easy to get caught up in the story of how or why it didn't work: "I guess they weren't 'the one,'" or "they changed into someone else," or "I'm not good enough." When we're stuck in the past, there is no new awareness, or positive movement in your life. Self-defeating thoughts can lead to depression and affect other areas of your life too. Our self-protection mechanisms can over-react and sometimes we avoid becoming intimate again. That's like never growing orchids because they are temperamental and eventually die. Would you be bummed about the leaves turning yellow and falling off a tree or would you honor the seasonal changes?
Why not celebrate the seasons of your relationship?
The end of a relationship is fertile soil to learn about us-our True Selves. It is an opportunity to be vulnerable and reflective, while observing our natural reactions as human beings without over-identifying with them. We can recognize recurring, negative patterns and seek healthy ways to change them. We can also remember the beautiful qualities of our ex-partners. Not from a place of needing them back-instead as a reflection of the same aspect in us, which attracted them. This brings a new awareness to the purpose of the partnership during that season of our life.
Is it possible the end of relationships is where we grow the most?

Corey Jenkins is co-host of TheMaleRoom.TV, a Consultant and Creator of http://LifewithAwareness.com/. On the show, and in his customized programs, his primary purpose is to support you remembering who you truly are and bringing that to your relationships and work. "That is life with Awareness-with a capital 'A,'" he says. Audiences and clients love working with Corey because he has been the student and the teacher. After making his tangible world dreams come true including his business career and romantic life, a series of higher consciousness experiences trumped anything he "achieved" to show him there was something more. After immersing himself in personal and relationship development programs and traveling the world to meet with teachers and guru's, he discovered they all lead to the same place-back to the Self-the true Self. Corey now dedicates his life to helping individuals, couples, and groups to create the experience they were born to have. His work is influenced by Abraham Maslow, Eckhart Tolle and 12 step programs.
