I am at peace today, having struggled to sleep last night. I have realised that I am in an abusive relationship with some family members (with me as victim) and it's time to withdraw until I am treated with due respect and loving care. If that means we don't communicate, so be it. I am worth the inner calm.
There's an emptiness to begin with. In time comes peace, strength, and the true heartfelt realization that you truly do deserve love and kindness. Life gets so much better.
