Walk Away

Generally, I believe most folks just want to be good people.
Most folks give the benefit of the doubt and try to be fair.
There are folks, however, who genuinely get giddy over calamity and chaos.
They find great joy in bullying and belittling others.
There is sheer shamelessness in shattering others.

Here is a hard lesson to learn, but one so very valuable that it can literally save your life.

A person will only do to you what you allow them to do to you.

It is when you find the strength to believe in yourself;
to value your worth;
to understand the sadness that lies in their heart;
that you can gather the broken pieces of yourself and walk away.

It is not only healthy, it is vital to your existence.
