I cannot agree more with this post. It does resonate with me having walked through it for a 20 year marriage. Giving others permission to disregard our thoughts and feelings as irrelevant says more about us than them. We hold more power over our lives and our choices dictate our future. This is well written and I love the quoted advice, too. Take care and thanks for sharing!
And thank you too for the lovely input! The day I woke up and said to myself "you have no right to have so much power over me" - was the day my life changed forever!!!!
Well said too :)
