I am worthy of something more!

In my opinion...

You abused your power.
You attacked my character.
You humiliated me.
You intimidated me.
You lied about me.

I was shocked.
I was angry.
I felt helpless.
I became anxious.
I was hurt.

There is a fine line between tough love and bullying, but what occurred behind those doors has always been clear in my mind. I lost the respect I once had for you, but what I lost in you I found in myself.

Days went by and turned to weeks, weeks turned into months, and those months have now turned into a year. I am changed... but not negatively as I had first expected. I have realized that sometimes change is good. And, sometimes, unexpected change is exactly what you needed to figure things out for yourself.

I've realized that sometimes the things we hold onto most are, in fact, the things we need to let go of.
