Distance gives us perspective. It helps us see who reaches out, who genuinely cares, and who makes an effort to stay connected. It also highlights who doesn’t—the ones who only prioritize you when it’s convenient for them or when you’re physically present.

That time away often sharpens our understanding of what we want and deserve in a partner or a friend. It reveals whether someone adds to your life with kindness, support, and love or leaves you feeling drained, neglected, or undervalued.

Clarity doesn’t always lead to easy decisions, but it’s a powerful tool for making the right ones. When you step back and take a good look at your relationships, you begin to recognize who’s truly right for you and who’s not. And with that knowledge, you can move forward, choosing connections that align with your values, needs, and happiness.

A week away isn’t just a break—it’s an opportunity to reset, reevaluate, and reclaim your peace.
