Thoughts of surrender

There are different kinds of surrender. Surrender to self. Surrender to death. Surrender to societal “norms”, on and on it goes. On 21September2023, I surrendered to acknowledging that the place I work that had once healed me from the stress of a toxic work environment had now become another toxic work environment when a change in management occurred. It was now destroying whatever healing had occurred. I knew nothing I could do would change it. My desire to work in a healthy, non-toxic environment was unwanted because this meant a bully could not control me. So I surrendered. I quit. I walked out without notice because their treatment of me did not deserve notice or consideration of the situation my leaving left them in. It had been a great place to work and I had warned them when the change in management occurred that if I was not treated fairly. If I was not treated as an adult and with integrity, then I would no longer work there. This came to pass and I walked. I haven’t regretted a single minute of it.
