I left you directions and a map
and said "this is where I'll be"
but I lied so I don't know
if you went to look for me.

I guess you would know it now
like you should have known it then,
you always took advantage of
knowing where I've always been.

I know...it's a terrible thing
but I'm not sorry in the least,
freedom means nothing left to lose,
it's the nature of the beast.

Timing is everything
to be able to see for miles across.
We are free, both you and me,
and it's much grander than the loss.

You will come to understand more and more that living to another's whim is a sort of slavery. You are free...and it feels so good. Be your own woman!!!!! You Are Loved.

thanks ladies

I had a woman come in yesterday and she wanted to rent a storage unit. She wanted her bills sent to LA and it puzzled me why. Eventually she opened up and said she was leaving her husband of 17 years. It has been a mentally abusive relationship. She is going to tell him she is going to her mother's for a visit and not come back.

I can understand.
