How I forgot him was not a sudden event, but a gradual process of choosing my own peace over the shadows of the past. In the quiet, healing air of France, I finally released the heavy burden of old resentments. This journey of forgiveness is more than just moving on. It is a profound internal architecture for a soul that has decided to build a future on solid ground rather than old wounds. Understanding how I forgot him helps me process my path toward the true love I found at forty-five. As a highly sensitive person, I turned the tectonic shifts of a difficult divorce into a stable, Malachite peace. Within these transformative intervals, the spirit finally finds its authentic rhythm. We move from the friction of memory to the clarity of presence. By forgiving, we reclaim our radiant, enduring strength.

How could I forget him: A woman leaves the past behind and steps towards the light, symbolizing forgiveness and new love.

Kako sam ga zaboravila

✦
Kako sam ga zaboravila? Prošle su godine i stvarno ga više nema u mojim mislima. Ponekad mi se pojavi u snovima, ali više kao greška — kao da je ukrao nečiju ulogu i iznenada se pojavio tamo gdje mu nije mjesto. Istina je da ga više nema u mojim jutrima, danima ni noćima. Prošla su vremena kada sam bila s njim i kada sam otišla. Prošla su i ona kada me je pratio pogledom, kada sam se okretala na ulici jer mi se učinilo da vidim njegov auto, iako ga nikada nisam željela sresti.
U početku mi je bio kao noćna mora. Sve što je uradio, govorili su mi, bit će lakše ako oprostim — i na tome sam radila. Kako sam mu oprostila, ni sama ne znam. U početku sam ga krivila, ali u trenutku kada sam izgovorila da je sretniji s njom, tada sam ga odvojila od svoje ljutnje. Rekla sam: neka bude sretniji s njom. Neka mene zaboravi. I tada sam oprostila — petnaest godina braka, i to je bio taj trenutak.
Shvatila sam da su stvoreni jedno za drugo i da se nisu trebali skrivati od njene obitelji, jer su ionako njegovu već razbili. Kasnije sam čula da su bili zajedno, ali nisu imali hrabrosti razbiti i njenu obitelj. Plan im nije uspio do kraja. I iskreno — žao mi je. Takva ljubav trebala je biti ovjekovječena, jer je razbila jednu nevinu, mladu i iskrenu djevojku koja je povjerovala da će biti voljena do kraja života. To se, nažalost, nije desilo.
Danas kažem: oprošteno im je davno.

Jer ja sam pronašla ljubav koja mi je uzvraćena. A oni su ostali razdvojeni i nikada nisu pronašli ono što nikada nisu ni imali — niti su znali da to postoji.

Comment je l’ai oublié

✦
Comment je l’ai oublié. Les années ont passé et il n’est vraiment plus dans mes pensées. Parfois il apparaît dans mes rêves, mais plutôt comme une erreur — comme s’il avait volé le rôle de quelqu’un et était apparu soudainement là où il n’avait pas sa place. La vérité est qu’il n’est plus dans mes matins, mes jours ni mes nuits. Le temps où j’étais avec lui et où je suis partie est révolu.
Au début, il était comme un cauchemar. Tout ce qu’il a fait, on me disait que ce serait plus facile si je pardonnais — et j’y ai travaillé. Comment je lui ai pardonné, je ne le sais pas moi-même. Au début, je le blâmais, mais au moment où j’ai prononcé qu’il était plus heureux avec elle, alors je l’ai séparé de ma colère. J’ai dit : qu’il soit plus heureux avec elle. Et alors j’ai pardonné — quinze ans de mariage, et c’était ce moment-là.
J’ai compris qu’ils étaient faits l’un pour l’autre. Plus tard, j’ai entendu qu’ils étaient ensemble, mais ils n’ont pas eu le courage de tout briser. Leur plan n’a pas réussi jusqu’au bout. Et honnêtement — je suis désolée. Un tel amour aurait dû être immortalisé, car il a brisé une jeune fille innocente et sincère qui a cru qu’elle serait aimée pour le reste de sa vie.
Aujourd’hui je dis : je leur ai pardonné il y a longtemps.

Car j’ai trouvé un amour qui m’est rendu. Et eux sont restés séparés et n’ont jamais trouvé ce qu’ils n’ont jamais eu — ni même su que cela existait.

How I Forgot Him

✦
How I forgot him. Years have passed and he is truly no longer in my thoughts. Sometimes he appears in my dreams, but more like a mistake — as if he stole someone’s role and suddenly appeared where he doesn’t belong. The truth is he is no longer in my mornings, days, or nights. Gone are the times when I was with him and when I left.
In the beginning, he was like a nightmare. Everything he did, they told me it would be easier if I forgave — and I worked on that. How I forgave him, I don’t even know myself. At first I blamed him, but the moment I said that he is happier with her, then I separated him from my anger. I said: let him be happier with her. And then I forgave — fifteen years of marriage, and that was the moment.
I realized they were made for each other. Later I heard they were together, but didn’t have the courage to break everything. Their plan didn’t fully succeed. And honestly — I feel sorry. Such love should have been immortalized, because it broke an innocent, young, and sincere girl who believed she would be loved for the rest of her life.
Today I say: they were forgiven long ago.

Because I found a love that is returned to me. And they remained separated and never found what they never even had — nor did they know it existed.
