Don't Sweat the Small Stuff is a good book. I have it somewhere in my overflowing bookshelf. My RAH taught me patience, that's for sure! Probably one of my biggest shortcomings. But I also learned to pay closer attention to my intuition and heed those red flags instead of wanting to dig deep into my denial blanket and get comfy.
I won't lie, SR friends, that I am most disappointed and sad. But acceptance is easier this time around, compared to a year ago. Detachment is also easier as I've had a lot of practice. I guess I needed to give things one more healthy try so I could feel like I did everything I could before giving it up. I honored my commitments to the point where they couldn't be honored any longer.
Again, thanks for all your support, guys! I am so grateful I have a place I can lay this all out - it does help to process everything.
