Do yourself a favor and learn how to walk away...
A long time ago my then sister-in-law and always friend
told me something that at the time left me wondering. She
told me that she terminated a friendship she has had for
over forty years. When I asked her why she said, "it was
not good for me anymore." I always wondered why that
would be so, especially after being friends for 40+ years.
Whenever we call each other I always ask about
that friend of hers. "Have you seen her?" Have you
talked to her again?" Always the same answer, "no."
She has told me several times that that friendship was
toxic and although it hurt to cut ties, it was best for her.
I still didn't understand how that could be. Today
maybe I have a little better understanding.
Like many things in life, sometimes a friendship
or a relationship has run it's course. Always best
for everyone involved to go their separate ways.
That being said, we are soon ready for takeoff. I am very
excited this year, and that's all due mainly to three little
girls I have the pleasure of calling my granddaughters.
To all a very good day. There is not always a
happy ending. Life is about the adventures you take
and the memories you make. I'm so ready.
There is no wisdom without leisure...
