Once Upon A Time

We all know the really good stories begin with "Once upon a time....", but all stories are not good stories, some stories have a very bad beginning and ending. I have a friend who constantly goes through issues with her man, and while I am no different when it comes to relationships, I feel hurt and pain just as much as the next person, but I would really like to know what makes a person stay, when they know they should go.

Of course, you can always claim that love is the reason, but we all know love was never supposed to hurt, you can even claim that you are comfortable and secure, but how comfortable are you if you constantly have to be in stressed out situation.

Happiness will only be yours if you claim it. If you claim it whole heartedly, you embrace it with ever fiber of your being, and if that means to eliminate toxic people from your life, then so be it, because at the end of the story, your happiness is the only thing that matters.
