What's the best stuff and the worst stuff happening in your life right now?

@BitterSweetPotato My worst stuff is DITTO

@BitterSweetPotato Sounds like an opportunity to me. Hope your finances can support a happy home.

@BitterSweetPotato I hope we can pave our way to a better future

@MsAlaineEYes They can but life isn't as simple as that and money doesn't really solve everything...

@BitterSweetPotato My son and I was in an abusive relationship; I was working of course, but I had savings and that enabled me to take him and move out, divorced 15 months later. Best thing I could have done. It isn't simple most of the time, but with a little hope and planning you can make it much better. Wishing you well.

@MsAlaineEYes Thank you for sharing this with me... It is hard moving on, especially when you are guilted with abandoning some people and leaving them behind (like in my situation).. even when you've done all you could to have them taken care of.. I have so many things planned, in practical terms, like money and stuff enabling me start somewhere else, but dealing with the emotional side of change is as important as having the material stuff planned. And this is my main obstacle right now..

@BitterSweetPotato You are the only one who can "live your life", allowing others to "guilt you" into not living it is not being fair to you. We will always have others in our lives who want us to be there for them. Are they "there" for you? It seems a bit "out of balance" and sometimes, leaving, allows all to see what worth you have brought to the relationship. You deserve to live your life. Emotions do need to be dealt with but not control you...unless you allow them to...sending HOPE.

@MsAlaineEYes Thank you.. I really needed to hear this, and yes I completely agree. No they are not there for me.. I also think my existence no longer adds anything good to them, as a matter of fact, it has become hurtful in a way.. I genuinely think we are all better off away from each other, but I guess I am just scared. Thinking and believing something is one thing, but acting on it is another.. Thank you, those words did give me hope and perspective.. :)
