A Few Simple Words
A
few years back I was in an abusive relationship, unable to get out on my
own. While attending a business conference in Boston, I met and became friends
with a man who has turned out to be the most important friend I have ever
had. He knew little, if anything, of this relationship I was in. One day,
for no apparent reason, he stopped, gently took my arm, looked me in the
eyes and said "Someday, someone will treat you as you deserve to be,
just let him", then we walked on, nothing else being said. Thinking
of those words I was finally able to get the strength I needed to break
from that abusive relationship, regain my self respect, and have now entered
a healthy relationship.
