When is it time to move on? From a job or a relationship. A home or a friendship. Timing is everything. Move too quickly and you might miss out on something wonderful. Too slowly and you can be forever scarred by waiting for things to get better.
It's not easy to know when to go. You can have friends who are toxic and should never have been invited in in the first place. We've all had them and we've all waited, at least once, too long to make them go. But then people we thought were not so great turned out to be the ones who had our backs all along...we just didn't see it.
Normally we leave a relationship, end a friendship or change jobs or houses because things aren't going well. We think too much about it. Lose sleep perhaps but overall, somewhere, we know it's time to move on. That instinct in our very soul tells us to go. But do we listen? Not right away most times.
But what about when everything is ok? What happens when things are going well but another offer comes up? How do we decide what is best for ourselves? That is much more difficult. As I write this it just occurred to me that's probably how affairs get started. That's a different subject for a different day I think.
Somewhere, someone you know is contemplating leaving their spouse. Ending a friendship. Changing jobs. It could even be you. Will it be the right choice? Who knows. Fingers crossed that whoever it is has a clear head, or enough wine, to figure it out.
I heard this saying once...It'll be alright in the end. If it's not alright it's not the end.
Sounds right to me. Oh and for the record I'm not getting a divorce, selling my house or moving. John was offered a new job today. Sadly it wasn't in a European city...those of you who are aware of my House Hunters International addiction will get a laugh over that....
