It’s like romantic love & friendships I suppose. People come into our lives and if we’re Securely Attached we’re able to let them go too. Not always easy when there’s been hurt, betrayal, distrust involved though. You’re doing right of course to move on your own path.
But like relationships, community is similar in that being burnt doesn’t mean we stop loving/joining - after a grieving/healing period.
I almost left this whole wider ‘community’ when I saw the ugly truths behind the scenes. Dishonesty & greed make me feel ill. But if I had left I would’ve missed out on meeting some truly good people.
Also, this feels real and true: "It doesn’t mean the community or the moment has to last forever. It also doesn’t mean that if a community breaks down that it’s a failed community. Things serve their purpose and move on."
It’s been such a sad state of affairs.

I'm so sorry to hear this happened. Ugh.

You can say that again, sister.
