This entry was such a great reminder that things don't need to be black and white. With the concept of setting boundaries being such a hot topic in self-help right now, I think it can be good to not *always* look at things in absolutes. (Though they do sometimes have their place.) You summed this up perfectly in the line "I didn't "settle for ____." I chose ___ as the best option at this point in my life." This is such a great perspective not only when it comes to our past, but looking at our decisions moving forward as well.
