I stopped looking for explanations, excuses, closure, validation, or answers, and my life shifted dramatically. Because I realized I was living a life centered around what others did or didn't.. Unknowingly, I was feeding them satisfaction by staying emotionally affected by their actions. Their behavior still had access to me, long after they were gone. I was giving them space in my head without charging rent. I was replaying moments they had already moved on from. So I changed the focus, from their intentions to my reactions. I chose responses that protected my peace, not the drama they expected. No emotional outbursts, no performances, no borrowed chaos, just focused on myself. That's when I learned happiness isn't handed to you, it's built deliberately. Your peace is created by you, for you, and it was never anyone else's responsibility.
