I finally found a quote that says what I've been saying all along ....that as hard as it is - you can't let someone else live or ruin your life - you're only given one shot at this (life) - and it's your responsibilty to make it the best it can be....no one deserves to take that away from you.
Quote by Anna Quindlen:
You are the only person alive who has the sole custody of your life ....Your entire life...Not just the life of your mind, but the life of your heart. Not just your bank account, but your soul.
I hope it brings some of you courage, strength, or just some hope.
