ooh. this line got me. it took me 9 years to work out that my need to disconnect from my husband, to have more alone time, to have more space was essential to the health of our marriage. It IS loving to take time out. It is self-love and deeply important. I wish you a great journey on the white water rapids ride, but i also wish for you: space and peace and the time to recharge. Put your oxygen mask on first. In kindness, A🙏💚
