So I'm faced with a dilemma... I promised myself that I wouldn't be like my mother, who can just throw people away like she threw me away. I promised myself I would never give up on people...
And yet... I find, in this moment, that I have to... I have to give up on someone who does not feel that I am worth it. Someone who feels that their ego is more important than my friendship. It's so difficult for me to let go, to just accept that this person who I thought was my best friend, really wasn't... I am battling to come to terms with the fact that I have to break the promise I made to myself and let this person leave my life. She has made it very clear that my honesty was not appreciated, and that I should have just let her carry on as she was, making me (and my family) uncomfortable.
I'm slowly realising that sometimes we have to let people walk away, especially those who no longer add any value to our lives. It doesn't matter how much you felt/feel for them, you have ot let them go. And the safest bet for me right now, is to walk in the opposite direction....
Some wise words from a Kenny Roger's song... An ace that I can keep...
"You've gotta know when to hold 'em,
know when to fold 'em,
know when to walk away,
know when to run"
This is me walking... *waves goodbye*
