The Day I Learned to Quit

Hello! When I said quit, it is not about quitting about life. It is about quitting the things and people that are no longer helping me grow better as a person and having freedom to do what I love. It is freedom from pain, hurt and regrets. I have no time for people who have no time of thinking about other people's feelings. I no longer want to run after those who will just drag me down. I am loving my life and it is getting better. Thank you.

what are you able to do now that you love that you weren't able to before?

I can sleep better, I can make my own decisions, I can write more, I can travel with just paying for myself and most of all, loving myself the better.

I agree. I am not that young anymore not to be able to discern those people who will just use you for their own benefits.

Yes. I should have done it before but then I get so soft when they apologize. But now I am so fed up that I do not like people dragging me into their negativity and selfishness. Thank you!

Great! Even I stay away from negative people and all negativity that makes me dull or makes me feel saddened. I am a person with lots of positive ideas and love to stay with positive persons which increase my faith in people and things going around me.

@mlgen1037 right on that. but we must also think about the adage that "quitters never win and winners never quit". i think i won when i quit(ted) that person out.

I like that sleeping soundly and peacefully at night. I just do not want to bring myself more pain that I need to quit. Quitting is the only option for circumstances such as this.

It lessens the burden from our shoulders that do not belong to us in the first place. When you no longer relate with people around you that means that you are growing and moving on to better things that enhance your life intellectually, mentally, emotionally, etc..
