I can forgive people, but I don't need to talk to them

I had planned to write about some tactics and useful knowledge I've acquired about people's privacy in this area; however, a number of circumstances have compelled me to add certain lessons I've learned over the years.

In the future, I will prioritize privacy once again.

It is necessary for me to have a conversation with my family members, despite the fact that I have offered them forgiveness for my Christian faith. The only topics we discuss are money or dramatic conversations, both of which are detrimental to my mental health at the present. My family and I have ceased talking with each other as a result of this.

Due to the fact that they are typically watching television, I am constantly able to hear disputes and profanity coming from the room that is adjacent to mine. Because there is nothing else available, I have even come to the conclusion that I should relocate to a foreign nation. (I am in the process of writing my second book about voice media, and I believe that in order to publish another book, I will have to switch platforms.)

The time of individuals is valuable. Right now, whenever I am engaged in a debate or conversation, I make it a point to form an opinion or prejudice about the other person in order to prevent my emotional state from developing further. With the knowledge and experience I've gathered at such a young age, I have a profound understanding of the extent to which individuals engage in talks that serve no purpose.For this reason, if I begin to prioritize time for a particular person, it is an indication of how much I appreciate that particular person.

In general, I take pleasure in interacting with other people; nevertheless, as my recovery continues, I am really contemplating moving abroad owing to the pressing nature of the situation. Taking into consideration the times when people uprooted their families and relocated to various continents, I believe it is safe to say that I am on the verge of becoming a "migrant" myself. As a result of my desire to begin on a new adventure and make connections with new people, despite the fact that I have already forgiven my own family for the crimes they have taken against me, this condition has arisen.

I am currently living a lonely and single existence as a result of removing those individuals from my life, despite the fact that I have forgiven those individuals who have emotionally damaged me in the past and that continue to do so for significant reasons. Due to the fact that I have developed a bias against the people who will be a part of the next chapter of my life, I aim to continue to do the same with them.

To be sure, I am not God, and I am a human being here on earth. In addition, I place a high value on the passage of time.

I make it a point to recognize shortcuts in my day-to-day existence so that I can interact with a smaller number of individuals. I have been keeping this frame of mind ever since I started concentrating on myself.

It would appear that the amount of people I will be able to surround myself with for the rest of my life will be extremely restricted. During the time that I am raising my children, I also have a feeling that I will not be able to discuss my personal realities. It would appear that only my cherished life partner will be aware of my genuine thoughts.
