What Jerry F said


I was reading one of Jerry's replies to a post just now and I didn't really realize but I put it to use this week. " It's none of my business"  

My partner and I aren't speaking much but I didn't fight, didn't ask the questions, cry, beg or quiz.  I just went on with my business.  Things are so so much calmer then in past fights.  Now after a couple of days....I don't even care.   I let go. 

No food....I mean no food in the house but yesterday I went to the store and bought all the fixings to make a big beautiful salad with chicken in it.   Well my partner didn't come home until late so I didn't make the meal.  When he did get home. I finally came out of the bedroom and saw he was making himself cereal for dinner.  I told him I purchased the fixings and if he would like to join me for dinner tomorrow and he said yes that would be nice.  He then said if I wanted he would go shopping with me to get some food.  I said that would be nice.   As I was walking away....he said  "  Your a good woman "    Well you know I thought.....   YES I AM  

Let go let God.....

 

PS:  I'm still going to leave but in the short term I can keep the peace within myself
