choices

Two hours of solitude...I returned to the car and turned on my phone. The message that was waiting caught me in the gut. I couldn’t breathe.

I said, “It’s funny when someone is doing something that they know is wrong, they cut off the people in their life who will call them out on their bullshit.” My friend replied, “People are going to make choices, there’s nothing you can do about it.”

People will make choices that you don’t agree with...part of being an adult is accepting those decisions gracefully, no matter how much they hurt...part of being a friend is respecting those decisions, no matter how much you disagree with them.
