I hope everyone hits that season where you’re not angry anymore, just aware. You see people clearly. You love differently. Less explaining, you just shift. That’s true maturity mixed with grace…
“Last week I cut off my one of my closest friends because I caught him cheating on his pregnant wife a month ago, I advised him to stop but then he slipped up and I caught him again last week. For that I’ve completely ended our friendship now. It’s even cost me $40K because I’ve invested some money into a business with him but because I no longer want anything to do with him and I’m pulling out, I won’t be chasing up the money. Our mutual friends are attacking me saying I have no right to get involved in his marriage, but my point is that, I have not gotten involved in his marriage at all. If I wanted to do that, I would go snitch to his wife. All I’ve done is cut off someone because we don’t share the same morals and ethics and I don’t want that energy around me. And also, I can’t be in his house seeing his heavily pregnant wife thinking she’s in a happy marriage whilst she’s being deceived and I have to stay silent.. That makes me uncomfortable, it’s against my nature. I’d rather not be around any deceitfulness like that. I still him wish him well. To me, an expired friendship is not beef. Nobody is understanding it from my view though. Oh well, I’m good with no friends anyway.”

Sorry for your loss. Um, there's no right or wrong way to grieve, haina mwalimu.
I grieved my dad on my WhatsApp status for years. I wrote think pieces there, I over shared, I crashed out. Just go through it, your way. Whoever can't stand it should leave with the grief too 💯
