For me, I thought I was ready to leave a year before I walked out the door - I told my HP I'm ready and I know that I know, my HP said "No, it's not time"
I spent the next year working on me, learning about detachment, self-care, dignity & self-respect and I kept asking my HP when can I go -
I know it sounds crazy - it was crazy to me - but when it was time to go - the path was so clear - the peace in my heart was so evident - everything so fell into place
If I had pushed or been pushed to leave before my time - it wouldn't have worked out- I truly believe that -
Today, my life is not perfect - but it is so pinkfully serene even in the chaos of life and it is SOOOOO much better than living with active alcoholism & addiction.
Everyone just has to walk their own path -
Or that's just my e, s, & h,
PINK HUGS to all
