Dear Diary,

This should be my first entry. Situation in my life has been the in-between somewhat okay to not really. I don't really have major issues and I've been trying to move on and be myself, but for some reason, people from the past keeps on trying to drag me back to their old game. I almost fell back to that pit playing that same old victimhood again but I didn't. I'm glad I didn't.

As for now, I'm questioning whether I'm running away from things or I'm doing a good job at distancing myself from what isn't serving me. I had to deactivate most of my social media's to cut any types of "links" to this ex friend of mine,🤡. In all honestly, I want to have nothing to do with her anymore but she keeps on doing all these things to drag me back to her life. Ain't happening, bro.

No. I'm not going to allow that. This is the boundary that I've set and I'm not letting anyone cross anymore. I'm never going to allow myself getting walked all over or disrespected. I'm done.

The other day, I was determined to let go of people from the past, including 🐼 and I've severed all the cords that were attached to them. For the first time this year, I also purchased an e-book about self-love. A good friend of mine, 🐶 inspired me to learn about self-love because let's admit it,majority of people love but they don't know how to love themselves. Today should mark the first day of me embarking on this journey and I want to commit to this fully.

~Emi
