A zen koan
Why is it, that after ending a relationship with someone that I loved, and who loved me back, I feel a lot happier than I did when I was in the relationship?

Or, for that matter, happier than I have done in a long long time? Possibly ever?

Sometimes, the greatest curse is getting what you want. Maybe losing what you want can be the greatest blessing, as well. But I don't understand it.
