Packing up your belongings means nothing if you can’t box up your heart, scribble fragile along the side, and take it with you, too. It’s hard to walk away, even if you know in your heart of hearts it’s necessary. Even if your feet can’t do the job and you find yourself crawling on your hands and knees away from a toxic situation, be proud of yourself. You are removing yourself to better yourself and you will stand on your own two feet again eventually. So crawl, walk, or run; the how doesn’t matter. Your new life is waiting for you.
