Am I Selfish...

She's only six and to young for this, I think to myself. Yet she knows we fight, knows we sleep apart. She's to young for that too. Family is supposed to stay together no matter what, it's supposed to be happy! What am I teaching her by staying, what message do I send by leaving. Is it better to stay and be miserable, or does every person deserves the chance to be truly happy.

I wish just once in every person's life you were allowed to take one look into the future. You would know if you were making the right choice. See the consequences of a decision. I would use mine now, see how it affected her. How will she turn out, if I'm not there to guide her daily. Who's happiness matters most? The road forks ahead and I can not see what lies beyond either corner...
