No More

No matter how much life - and the people in it - try to chip away at you, I've realized that they can't control what happens inside with your heart and mind. There's comfort in that for me. That I can decide what my inner resolve will be about myself and my life and what I eventually want for it. Not knowing how to get where I resolve to get someday is the hard part but it doesn't change my decisions about it. And that makes me feel strong. No one can hurt me more than I let them and I make the decision here and now not to let them and their hurtful behavior eat away at me any longer. It stops here.
