It Didn't Kill You

Nowadays you always hear someone screaming about loyalty. Loyalty is not staying committed to something that is not good for YOU! It doesn't matter how much you have been through with a person, or how much you love them. If someone is not treating you how you want to be treated, it is not your job to be loyal to them because of a tittle. Be loyal to yourself first. Be loyal to you, because you deserve to be there for yourself first before anyone else can. We are so quick to be loyal to people or things that treat us with no respect or that hurt us.

I’m sure you get the point. Everything but accept it. I thought... I’m too blessed for this pain. It can’t be mine. No! I don’t deserve this. But In fact, it was mine. Actually, it was JUST for me! It was for me to learn how to forgive & to let go. I had to make the pain at home within me. Let it know that it was okay to stay while it needed a home, but when it was time to go, I had that choice.  I am in pain but, I am alive. For a bigger purpose than my existence.
