I’ve just been reading the other thread about the worst decisions people have made in their lives. I’m saddened to hear people’s stories and would like us to have a positive thread to go alongside it..
so what’s the best thing that’s happened to you, or the best decision you’ve made?
AIBU?
What’s the best thing that’s happened in your life?

Freeing myself from pain and guilt. Realising that I can only control what I do and how I react. Implementing and enforcing boundaries with the understanding that no matter what I do, how I do it, people will still behave how they want so I may as well live life on my terms. I am a good person and that is enough for me. Disengaging has been wonderful and has allowed me to nurture bonds that are equal, compassionate and love based.
I know that isn't a simple answer but it's my truth.
Yes I love my DH and my children and they're all wonderful but I came into this world alone and I'll leave alone, I need to be at peace with how I'm living my life for me before I can show gratitude for others. I'm worth it.

Marrying DH and having DC. DH is widely considered to be one of the kindest, most sensible and wise people around. He makes my life better, makes me a better person and I have a huge amount of respect as well as love for him. Our DC are happy young adults, doing well in their chosen careers.
