And he dishes out some wisdom alright.
His website is really good, too.

This was a response written to some babe, but there's a lot of clever stuff in there which applies to many many people I know.
Hope you are all going to have a peaceful Monday.

Before you open up to others again, open up to yourself. It sounds as if you are still carrying around past pain.
Instead of dwelling on and reliving how things went in the past, take your attention deeply into this moment. What traces of the past do you bring with you into the here and now?
You don’t need to fight it or change it but rather to become abundantly clear and aware of it. Then you can see it for what it is: past thoughts you are continuing to react to. If you continue to react to a past which no longer exists, there will be no end to your pain.
Time erases the past on its own and you will move on, but you don’t have to wait for that to happen. Awareness practices such as the one I describe above in combination with daily meditation will help you to let go.
“There is no remedy for love but to love more.” ~ Henry David Thoreau
The more you close yourself off, the more you will feel isolated. It is to your own benefit that you remain open and loving, of anything be it a flower or a puppy or another human.
Just because things played out one way in the past doesn’t mean you should assume it will be so forever into the future. Although it may be worth re-examining the kinds of boyfriends you feel attracted to and why.
Namaste :)
