The Fund doesn’t flinch. Not when you pause. Not when you pull back. Not when you test the waters to see if I’ll notice. I won’t. That’s the part that stings, isn’t it? The system continues – flawless, fluid, and fully funded – without the need to chase, coax, or miss you.
You tell yourself you’re being clever. Strategic. That your absence is a power move. But what you’re really learning is how quiet it gets when your relevance fades. The Fund doesn’t stall. It doesn’t spiral. It simply reassigns attention to the ones who understand how this works.
Because this was never about making you feel wanted. It was about making you feel necessary – and then showing you you’re not.
The standard of living stays high. The packages still arrive. The silence only embarrasses those who hoped it would matter.
And you do wonder, don’t you? Whether I’m still thinking of you. Whether you left a mark. Whether the door is still open.
I could tell you. But I don’t need to. The Fund already answered.
