If you're looking for closure, let me tell you this: The lack of respect was the closure. The lack of an apology was the closure. The lack of care, accountability and honesty. That was the closure. God is giving you accelerated breakthrough that will make you recover wasted years!
Unhealed trauma will sometimes give you a high tolerance threshold to disrespectful or toxic behaviour. Just because you can take it doesn't mean you shouId tolerate it.

In Louisiana, black women were put in cells with male prisoners and some became pregnant
All children born in the penitentiary became property of the state
At 10 years they would be auctioned off. The proceeds were used to fund schools for white kids #BlackHistoryMonth

God is bigger than the diagnosis. Bigger than the debt. Bigger than the delay. Bigger than the door that closed. Stop giving your problem a microphone and start giving God your faith.
To the person carrying more than you’ve told anyone… It’s going to get better. The weight won’t always feel this heavy. The tears won’t always fall this often. The questions won’t always go unanswered. God sees what you’re carrying. He knows what you’re facing. And He is already working on what you’re worried about. The door will open. The healing will come. The peace will return. The joy will rise again. Hold on. God has never abandoned you in a battle, and He’s not about to abandon you now. Trust Him. ❤️🙏🏼
Uncle Tom was a man:
—who refused to beat black women.
—who refused to tell on other slaves.
—who would put cotton in other slaves’ bags at night, so that they wouldn’t get beat!
—who helped 100 slaves get free long before the underground railroad.
Most people have heard or used the term UNCLE TOM when we refer to a sell-out, but did you know that the inference is totally wrong.
The real Uncle Tom was a hero, Josiah Henson, was an abolitionist who helped slaves escape among other great things.

Proverbs 27:6 (NASB95)
Faithful are the wounds of a friend, But deceitful are the kisses of an enemy.
Meaning a real friend may tell you something that hurts your feelings but heals your life. An enemy may flatter you just to keep you comfortable, blind, or stuck.
