You Did Nothing Wrong- And You Deserve Love, Not Blame

A Gentle Reminder When Life Closes A Door and Your Heart Hurts

Did your partner break up with you? Did you lose your job? Or did you get some bad news? Then these words are for you.

Before we begin, I open my arms and offer you a big, tender, comforting hug. It’s okay to cry. It’s okay to grieve a loss. Now, let me serve you a warm cup of tea and a generous slice of chocolate cake.

Dear one, you did nothing wrong. Life sometimes closes a door — but in a few weeks, a new one will open for you. It may feel uncomfortable right now, and perhaps you didn’t expect this to happen. But this, too, is part of life.

Please, don’t doubt yourself or feel ashamed. The loss of a job, a breakup, a divorce — these are chapters in the journey of life. They do not define you, and they certainly do not diminish your worth.

And never believe the hurtful words some people say in moments like these. Here’s the truth: if someone isn’t wise enough to see your beautiful qualities, that is their loss. If someone is too spoiled or too arrogant to appreciate you just as you are, it’s their ignorance that needs a wake-up call.

If someone leaves you, you might even say they did you a favor. You deserve to be in a relationship with someone who loves you wholeheartedly. So if they walked away, let them go. That space in your life is now open for someone better — someone who will truly love, respect, and cherish you for who you are.

If you’ve just lost your job, this might be the beginning of something better. It could be an opportunity to find a healthier work environment — with a better salary, wiser colleagues who truly see your gifts, and a company that genuinely needs your talents.

I know — rejection always hurts. But those who reject you are not your tribe. They’re not the people your Soul wants you to journey with. Because kind-hearted, loving, respectful souls don’t leave you in ways that make you question your worth.

Let me gently remind you: you are still a wonderful human being. A beautiful Soul, full of qualities that matter. You are lovable and amazing, just as you are. And if those who rejected you couldn’t see your light, then they were never meant to walk beside you.

Sometimes, rejection is divine protection. Maybe your Soul has something better in store — new people, new places, new goals, and brighter plans waiting to be discovered.

And no — no matter what they told you, whatever they claimed was “wrong” with you — those are, most of the time, just excuses. Excuses to avoid taking responsibility for their own actions. Let me ask you: when you truly, deeply love someone, don’t you love their flaws too?

Please, don’t let the world — or anyone in it — make you feel bad about yourself. Life is like a train station: when one train departs, just sit and wait. Another train always arrives. And often, that new train is of better quality — with more comfort, more kindness, and more love.

New doors are going to open for you soon!

With Love and Light, Jeanne
