Sometimes, you have to choose yourself

There was a time when you longed for people to love and accept you. You hoped they would see the truth and messages within you. But they turned a blind eye, their words and actions pushing you further away until you were left alone with your shattered hopes and broken heart. Yet still, you clung to the belief that things would change, making excuses for their behavior until one day you couldn’t take it anymore.

The pain inflicted upon you, the manipulative tactics used against you, and the harsh revelations you could no longer ignore consumed you completely. And at that moment, you decided to remove yourself from that group, friendship, or relationship and chose your well-being and self-love above all else.

It may not have been an easy choice, met with understanding or support from others. But deep down, you know it was the right one: cutting ties with a destructive path that could only lead to your downfall. As difficult as it may be, trust and believe in yourself as you bravely walk away from what once seemed like an unbreakable bond because sometimes choosing peace and self-preservation is the most courageous act of all.

Love,

Carmen
