Khloe Kardashian is unleashing ALL her feelings about love, loss and Lamar on Instagram.
This morning, the reality TV star took to the social media platform to post tearful quotes on relationships and penned a thoughtful 400-word essay of her own.
“‘Letting go doesn’t mean that you don’t care about someone anymore,"” she begins. “‘It’s just realizing that the only person you really have control over is yourself."”
It sounded like a rather generic quote on lost love, but the words that followed appeared to be specific to her situation with estranged husband Lamar Odom.
“We have to learn to stop taking on peoples problems as if they are our own,” she continued.
“Loving people does not mean we have to carry their burdens and confusions on our back. Sadly, You can only express your opinion on a situation. You can’t want their life more than they do.”
It is likely that Khloe is referring to Lamar’s issues with substance abuse, which nearly led to his death last year after he was found unconscious in a Nevada brothel after a weekend of partying.
Since then, Khloe has helped nurse him back to health and the two have been seen together many times, leading fans to believe a full-fledged reconciliation was on the way.
Indeed, Khloe herself said that in her perfect world, she and Lamar would one day be together again.
However, in recent weeks, Lamar was seen drinking at a bar before attending church with Khloe on Easter Sunday, and last week, reports claimed he had contacted his old drug dealers for a hookup.
Khloe has pleaded with him to go to rehab, but the former NBA star refused.
About mid-way through her lengthy Instagram post, she alludes to her attempts to “fix” Lamar:
“You can’t force someone to be the person you need them to be. Even if it’s for their own good!! Sometimes the person you want most is the person you’re best without.”
She concluded the monograph with the following:
“A Girl once told me… Be careful when trying to fix a broken person. For you may cut yourself on their shattered pieces.”
Heavy stuff.
Sounds like Khloe is realizing she needs to let go of the love of her life for good, even if that results in his own self-destruction.
