Can we normalize telling people “we can’t be friends anymore”? Can we normalize walking away from toxic relationships without turning back?

Just the way we see people and like them for who they are and decide to be friends with them, can we also cultivate the habit of telling people we can’t be friends with them anymore?

Friendship breakups can hurt badly, sometimes they are worse than relationship breakups as some of our friends move from becoming friends to family, and losing such people can hurt.

It’s very normal to adore beautiful friendships and wish they never end, sadly they do and most times they end in the most hurtful manner.

While some friends are angels and they bring so much love and happiness to our lives, some can come into our lives and destroy all our happiness and drain us.

Life happens and people change. People can move from the sweet angels that you know them to be to devils that you cannot recognize. If you cannot put up with their antics anymore you can politely tell them you are not interested in the friendship anymore.

A lot of people find it difficult to end certain friendships under the circumstances of many years of being together and the whatifs.

Walking away from toxic friendships and relationships takes a lot from us. It shouldn’t be something we are scared of to do. Taking the courage to walk away from toxic people and things that no longer serve us is very important. Choosing peace over everything else should be our priority.

I’d love to share a beautiful song with you all. I call it the peaceful song.

The title of the song is, Hello by Aqyila.

Hello is a song that resonates deeply with me, it’s a song that preaches peace, self-love, letting go of toxic relationships, letting go of the past, and embracing new beginnings.

I don't have time for anything that's gonna harm me
It may be hard to understand
Words have the power to empower or destroy me
Now, I'm looking in the inside now
Claiming what I lost and found
I'm on this journey

We all need to prioritize our well-being. Whatever puts you in harm's way or jeopardizes your peace of mind should be eliminated in seconds. If a friendship or relationship only costs you pain and reminds you of your past it’s okay to take a bow and walk away.

had to take a fall, so I could settle (I could settle)
Found my peace and grounding, now I'm levelled
New beginning, hello
Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello

No one makes it through life without experiencing some bumps on the way. This is not a curse just something that is bound to happen one way or another but will you let that rub you off your peace and happiness? Hell no!

While we strive to make all the money in this world, we also need to prioritize our peace of mind. What will it profit you if you become super successful without having peace?
