Staying means accepting the hurt and disrespect and surviving on crumbs of effort that leave us longing for real love.
Walking away when you still love someone feels feels like pain intertwined with hope. As hard as it is to leave itโs the only way to find yourself again.
One of the hardest goodbyes weโll ever face is when we finally accept that our relationship will never be healthy. When we admit staying means living in a cycle of waiting for someone to change who never will.
You can acknowledge that someone in your life lived it for themselves with everyone else being collateral damage to the end game of them achieving their goal while also acknowledging that you cared about them. When they are gone, you miss them. However, you umdersrand your place.
@Hydedriver We actually have Blue Ghost Fireflies in my area. They are around for a few weeks in early Summer. I keep looking for them. So far, no sightings. Only the regular ones.
