How Do I Walk Away

How am I supposed to walk away from something that’s a huge part of me? Something that I grew up with. How can I walk away from something that played a big role in who I am today. I don’t want to walk away, but I have to. It’s for the best. I can’t keep being hurt over and over. I need to make a change, and to do that I need to walk away, even if it hurts. Walking away couldn’t possibly hurt me more than it would for me to stay. If I stay, I’m gonna be stuck. If I walk away, I’ll be allowed to grow and have more opportunities… but how do I walk away?
