Thank you to all those who supported me over the past year. It's been a hard year bit I've now realise I tend to be too trusting and I over extend myself and go all out to help and support those who don't appreciate me, take me for granted or abuse my trust. Never again will I put anyone's worth above my own, never again will I allow someone to say things that hurt me egregiously.
Never judge a book by its cover, one should study its contents first before deciding to pick it up or to leave it on the shelf. I've finished the last chapter and closed the book. I'm leaving it on the shelf and walking away. I'm not perfect...I'm the furthest thing from it but I am struggling to change for the better and hopefully I will.
Am I sad about things? Yes. do I regret how things turned out, in hindsight, by over extending myself? No. I wouldn't have learned a thing. I wouldn't have realised quite how much everyone means to me, that I can care a lot and I can hurt even more, when I'm wrong to admit it, and when I'm right, not to gloat. Having said that I will probably try to help whenever anyone needs me to.
But I have to build a wall around my heart. As it is the Christmas season, it's a time for forgiveness and letting go. I forgive those who did so much damage to my self worth. I wish them the best and every happiness, everyone deserves that. Thank you for teaching me a lesson I had to learn. Thank you for hurting me to the core more than anyone has hurt me before. Thank you for letting me know how little you valued my friendship. Thank you for showing me words really do more damage than sticks and stones.
Thank you for the anguish you have caused. I have learnt the lesson and come through it. Maybe not with flying colours but at least with a 'B' or a 'C'. OK, let's be honest, a 'D'. You can still care for those who have wound you but you can't have them in your life in any measure. I have been grappling with this for a while, but I have to have closure. So as it's almost exactly a year to the day that I was hurt beyond imagination. The gash is still healing and the scars will be there forever. But it is time for me to say a final Thank you and GOODBYE.
