This really hit close to home - especially for my life right now. I read a quote a little while ago... or I heard it somewhere, I cannot recall - but it went something like this "The biggest mistake we make in life is thinking we have time" and it is so very true.

I recently asked my partner of 13 years to leave... but not with the intention of our relationship coming to a grinding halt... but rather for it to have a sort of "RESET". An opportunity for us to re-connect on a healthier level.

well, that did not go according to plan and though one of my biggest gripes with him was that I always felt unheard and deprioritised... he just went along and showed me that he can even level up in that regard, lol. He just left and my son and I never heard from him again. It has been two months now.

All that ever mattered to him was... what mattered to HIM! it was just crazy and I was always left bewildered by it... but what he did after leaving... that was probably the most unbelievable of all. I mean my son alone... thats the only father he has ever known and "poof" he was just gone. How absolutely selfish!

This world sure is a crazy place!

Lovely piece of writing @ninapenda xxx and yes... life is too short. If you love someone, tell them! and make the most of ALL the moments! Appreciate the good people in your life and count your blessings... because you never know when it may be the last.
