Use your external and internal senses. I believe that you already know much better than we do what you need - including the possible answer “to take a lot longer to further understand my feelings”. If you feel like you’ve lost something, ask yourself what. And if you feel that you need to be free of the past, ask yourself why. And if you don’t understand why you are seeking permission, ask yourself what you make of that. Perhaps I may suggest that you think about if you feel confident about your needs and what they are while also balancing them with the needs of others. When you write your new chapter of life, begin with the same question you would have if it were a book: “what’s the story gonna be, here?”
