The Words That Kept Me Content With Being Unhappy

What hurt the most was that I had accepted them.

It was as if everything we have ever loved, hated, or known was taken away.

It’s not the same. It isn’t real.

I don’t let them turn me into the same people who hurt me. I never will.

My life sometimes feels like a rollercoaster. I rise to peaks and fall to valleys.

People like that love company.

Sometimes my posts betray me. I snitch on myself, as the kids say.

Without them, I would wallow in my own mind during times when my own mind is the most dangerous place to wallow in.

Your kid is watching. You can’t scream. You can’t yell. You can’t say all the bad things you’re dying to say.

Don’t do what I do. I won’t do what you do. We do what’s right for our families.
