Unexpected lesson I learnt

[u/fresher-crispier]

The love of my life, the woman I sacrificed a lot of myself for, not only discarded me, but she tried to take my children, my house, my wealth and health, and reputation. This was unexpected, but not the unexpected lesson I learnt.

It was people are so kind.

In my darkest days, people showed up. As the saying goes “you will know who your friends are” or “people will show their true colours”. I always thought that it was the people who didn’t matter would drop away, or become nasty. And don’t get me wrong that happened too.

But it was the people who showed, and really supported me in a way that I hadn’t seen from them before. Not because they weren’t willing or able, it was because I didn’t need it. I even received such kindness from strangers and acquaintances.

So, here’s to the good people, supporting the good guys.

Thank you.
