No Contact Quotes

“I no longer look to my abusers with any expectation– of remorse, or apology or restitution or restoration or relationship. I’m at peace, accepting that they won’t and can’t help me out of the mess they created. But, I’m the best qualified for that job anyway and I’m happy with the job I’m doing.”
― Christina Enevoldsen, The Rescued Soul: The Writing Journey for the Healing of Incest and Family Betrayal

It's not just a self-care method.

It's a revolution.

It's a confirmation.

It's the acknowledgement of your worth, your value, your right to live free from abuse, mistreatment and cruelty.

It's a supreme validation of the fact that you deserve to forge the path to freedom from a perpetual war zone.

It's a declaration that you are enough - and that you've had enough.”
