Walking Away

I thought I was changing..truly evolving..you know, improving my ability to strip away certain negative behaviors that are not relevant to my everyday life.. sadly, no

I was reunited with a person from my past..we share a history with his anger..I was not fearful about
seeing him because I had thought of him in neutral terms during our multi-year separation

When he screamed and waved his arms at me..I reverted back to textbook mistakes in communication
EXCEPT for one

I walked away,first, when he was shouting: MOM AND DAD WISHED YOU HAD NEVER BEEN
BORN!

A good start on the advancing of my emotional timeline
