1 Month

Today is one month. One month since I’ve been free of a toxic relationship that held me for four years. A relationship that I felt so dependent on I never knew if I’d ever leave, even though I was being lied to, manipulated, emotionally abused and cheated on. I didn’t think I’d be strong enough to be able to handle my own happiness. I didn’t know if I’d strong enough to stay away once it did happen. But I am. I’m here one month down, the rest of my life to go.

This month has been the longest and most confusing month ever. Days I wonder if I made a mistake, where I cower in fear over the thought of never seeing him again. Versus days where I feel on top of the world, better then ever because I feel this great weight lifted off of my chest. I’m free.

I know it’s the small things in life that count, so I’m celebrating every victory I come across, and this is my first one. Please celebrate with me, I am FREE!! I
