Life is one giant lesson in humanity...
You are responsible for how long you let what hurt you haunt you...
One thing is for certain...
You are not the villain in anyone's story just because you refused to consent to their constant disrespect towards you
Love and understanding may be unconditional
But tolerance is not...
Your energy is a gift
Not everyone deserves to have constant access to it
And they definitely do not have the right to feed off it...
People don't abandon people they care for
They abandon people who they were using...
Scared is a feeling...
But brave is what you are doing...
To actively choose change...
Refuse to hold onto the guilt misplaced upon you
This is the final choice to move from where certain movements have held you still
Because it is one of the most destructive things human beings have created
The idea that you should feel bad or lost if you are not productive every moment of the day
Sometimes you just need time to be you
Embracing your being...
And the courage sought at first light of morning
To rise even though weary...
To hold your head above the waves of life crashing into your being
Because you have decided to fight for yourself
To exist upon your own terms
Reminding yourself that you are a human being
Not a human doing...
To take those moments calling your name
To rest...
To breathe...
And to hold onto the light breaking through the darkness.
