“Not everything is supposed to become something beautiful and long-lasting.
Sometimes people come into your life to show you what is right and what is wrong, to show you who you can be, to teach you to love yourself, to make you feel better for a little while, or to just be someone to walk with at night and spill your life to.
Not everyone is going to stay forever, and we still have to keep on going and thank them for what they’ve given us.”
– Emery Allen
There is, perhaps, a book waiting to be written titled, “The Joy of Quitting”
The POV from the person who is leaving. Not about being a couple. But situations, environments, workplaces that are not “a good fit.” Euphemisms and hard truths. Encouragement for those who persevere, endure and toil, when instead they could be enjoying, growing and thrilled at the prospect of getting up every morning and instead of groaning and yawning, jumping up and doing the Olympic gymnast’s triumphant hands up, back arched, beaming and declaring, “I stuck it for a perfect 10.0!”
