All of that advice — to forgive and forget, to “move on”, to “let the past go” — is such a huge, toxic pile of rubbish and if it never gets tossed out the window onto my head again it will be too soon!

Good for you in honoring your truth.

It is my sincere wish to find a way to be unfindable when my abusive gets to the point of death — I do NOT want to get the phone call from family friends telling me that I have to come home and see her one last time because, no, I do NOT have to come home and subject myself to her narcissistic torture one last time thank-you-very-much!

Here’s to caring for and respecting ourselves as we should have been in childhood 🙏🏻
