How dare he put me in this situation! I thought when you loved someone you were supposed to help each other not twist their words and let them doubt who they are. I thought when you loved someone you were supposed to show you care, not live in fear. While I am not scared of him, there apparently is more to him then he led on..in which case I had a reason not to trust him. I dont trust people easily and he always wondered why, well duh!

He would tell me oh you spend all your time on the internet...uhh excuse me honey but how can I be in the bedroom watching tv with you, if the computer is in the office across the hall...how exactly am I in 2 places at once?

You changed he tells me. I changed!? You're the one running around yelling and screaming at me and every time we fight there seems to be a gun involved, how have I changed??? Now I got CPS breating down my neck asking my babies if they're afraid of me!? Are you kidding???

I will not be afraid of him like I was my ex husband. I will not be afraid because I have 2 little boys who do not need to hear me cry in the dark. I cannot nor will I defend this man. I have come to the conclusion that he is hurt, he suffers...well so what, the harm my friends was done to me..or it couldve been done to me or my kids. I told him not to bring them damn guns in the house but he totally disrespected my feelings by doing otherwise.

Ive been down this road with the kids before. I shouldve known not to get involved. But I took the risk. I tried to trust again, I tried to love again, I tried....But now I know.....

Now I know that I shouldnt. Now I know I can't. Let him leave. The Gods take him. There is no hatred, no anger here. It just wasnt meant to be.

" You have been through this before , so you have the strength to do it again, the first time was the hard one darling, as he was the father of your children.. This time will be easier, you have no ties to him, no children to him... Leave when it is calm, that is the best time, plan it carefully, and get your children and yourself out of this situation, especially as he has guns. You deserve better, your children need you to be strong and clever here, go for it , and never blame yourself for what he does "

" My mother was so afraid of my dad and his guns, that when she booted his a$% out, she crawled on her hands and knees for months afterward. She was afraid to put her eyes over the sill of the window. That he would shoot her square in the head! When she booted him, she took all the guns to the police station before he could come and collect them.

I pray you find safety for yourself. You won't find the man who will honor and protect you until you learn to honor and protect yourself sweety. I am sorry your going through this. "

" There are people who can, and will, walk away from you. And hear me when I tell you this: when people can walk away from you, let them walk. I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean, hang up the phone.

When people can walk away from you, let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left. The Bible said that they came out from us that it might be made manifest that they were not for us. For had they been of us, no doubt they would have continued with us. [1 John 2:19].

People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay. Let them go. And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person, it just means that their part in the story is over. And you've got to know when peoples' part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead. You've got to know when it's dead. You've got to know when it's over.

Let me tell you something: I've got the gift of goodbye. It's the tenth spiritual gift. I believe in goodbye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful. And I know whatever God means for me to have, He'll give it to me. And if it takes too much sweat, I don't need it.

Stop begging people to stay. Let them go!

If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong to you and was never intedned for your life, then you need to...LET IT GO!

If you are holding onto past hurts and pains...LET IT GO!

If someone can't treat you right, love you back and see your worth...LET IT GO!

If someone has angered you...LET IT GO!

If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge...LET IT GO!

If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction...LET IT GO!

If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents...LET IT GO!

If you have a bad attitude...LET IT GO!

If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better...LET IT GO!

If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new level in Him...LET IT GO!

If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship...LET IT GO!

If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help themselves...LET IT GO!

If you're feeling depressed and stressed...LET IT GO!

If there is a particular situation that you are so used to handling yourself and God is saying, "Take your hands off of it," then you need to...LET IT GO!

Let the past be the past. Forget the former things. God is doing a new thing!
LET IT GO!

Get right or get left, think about it, and then...LET IT GO! "
