@staceydaly: Being left taught me something valuable: I was carrying more than my share anyway. At first I was heartbroken. Then I was overwhelmed. Then I was exhausted. And then one day I had a realization that pissed me clean off… I was already doing most of it. The worrying. The planning. The problem solving. The sacrificing. I just hadn’t given myself credit for it yet. Funny how some of us spend years wondering if we’re strong enough, only to find out we’ve been carrying the whole damn team the entire time. #selfmade #financialsecurity
