A through X

Sometimes I wonder why it is that we as people tend to stay in uncomfortable and destructive situations. When is enough, enough?? When is it that people realize that maybe they are in this specific situation because they have allowed it to get to where it is at thus far. From personal expereince and from others, I really would like to advice anyone who is in an unhealthy relationship to try and get out of it. I know, easier said than done... but I did it and I have plenty of friends and sisters who did it as well. All that is needed is will power, and what helps more is if you visualize yourself without that other person, visualize yourself doing the things you like being single. Sometimes we as people think that we need something when we really dont, and that is when the relationship becomes an addiction and it is no longer there for happiness or for partnership... Sometimes, we forget to be independent and become dependents...like children. I can understand that ultimately we want someone to love, someone to grow with and share memories wether good or bad with...but, when you force yourself to stay with a person that is clearly doing you more bad than good...maybe, is time to break away from the usual path... and take the road less known. Just a thought. Life is too short to stick around something that isn't doing you any good, your emotional and mental well being are more important than any female or male... Sincerely, Chica

Also, listen to this song if you need some other motivation to end the unhappiness!!
Ingrid Michaelson "Starting Now"
It is truly an amazing song...put it as aloud as you can and let the words run through you like the many tears, screams and sleepless nights.
