Distance.

This can be joy to some, and agony for others.

And to many, this can be the best thing ever. Because when you’re distant, you can experience what you can’t if you’re somewhere unbearable.

You’re in a toxic environment. Whether you live in it, or are there for a while, the fact remains that you’re in a bad place. And the longer you’re there, the more your sanity slips away as time goes by.

It doesn’t make sense to stay there and endure that. And sometimes, it’s better to just remove yourself from a situation.

That’s where distancing comes in.

If you distance yourself from that toxic environment, you’ll save yourself in so many ways. You’ll save your sanity, energy, and so much more. And overall, you’ll feel a lot better.

Here’s an example. A flower needs a suitable environment in order to grow properly. If it was in a frigid area with barely any sun, it’ll weaken from the harmful conditions. But if it’s in a warm environment with plentiful sun, with proper maintenance it can eventually bloom and flourish.

When you distance yourself from a bad environment and go to a good one, you’ll be at peace. You can focus on the important things, and concentrate on whatever you need to do.

Distance can be the best thing ever. If you’re in a toxic environment, I suggest you create a list of good places, gather the items you need, and go. Parks, libraries, cafes, or even just sitting in your car. Whatever works for you, do it.

And always remember; your health matters.
