You don’t have to ask if it’s okay to protect your wealth against a “philandering or spendthrift husband”.
You don’t have to ask for advice about “should you” leave an abusive boyfriend.
You don’t have to pretend that your child doesn’t know that your husband: uses drugs, cheats, beats you or verbally abuses you, or all of the above. Your child knows it all, trust me, your child knows what happens at home.
My darling woman, you don’t have to hope that life will get better. You can make it better with different decisions.
You don’t have to think that you could do better unless you really can do better. Only you know that, no one else knows that. You are the one who determines whether you do well or not.
You do not have to hear another’s judgment and take it as your own. You don’t, judgment is not real, it is just another’s thoughts. Leave it at that. It’s just someone else’s thoughts.
My darling woman, you are powerful, strong and beautiful. You don’t need manmade accoutrements to prove that, at all. No amount of hair styling, make up and perfect clothing makes you better.
Who you are is not the subject of another’s thinking, it is the subject of your own thinking.
My darling woman, do for yourself what no one has done for you in quite some time. Give yourself compassion. That means to reach out and express love and understanding for yourself.
Act on your compassion: have a cookie and take a nap.
My darling woman, you are all you need. Don’t be afraid of loneliness, instead be afraid of never making your own decisions to live your own life.
