There was a time when you stayed in places that dimmed you.
In love that drained you.
In conversations where your truth had to whisper.
In relationships where you had to be smaller to be tolerated.
You called it love.
You called it loyalty.
You called it “trying.”
But now?
You call it what it was:
A pattern of proving your worth in rooms that were never worthy of you.
And maybe they left.
Maybe they ghosted.
Maybe they blamed you for the damage they caused.
Maybe they rejected your boundaries like they were betrayal.
But hear this:
It wasn’t rejection.
It was redirection.
Back to your throne.
Back to your boundaries.
Back to your body, your breath, your knowing.
You stopped begging to be chosen because you remembered—
you were never meant to be disposable.
You’re not bitter.
You’re just not available for begging anymore.
And that?
That is the beginning of real love:
The kind you give to yourself first.
🔥 5 Campfire Affirmations for the One Who Stopped Reaching for What Hurts
I no longer prove my worth to people committed to misunderstanding it.
Their rejection was not a loss—it was my redirection toward peace.
I will not chase what God, peace, or healing did not send.
I do not mourn access to places I outgrew.
I release what doesn’t hold me with care—and I return to myself with joy.
