LOVE is a want
You love someone because you want to. You don't need to. I love because I want to. I don't need anyone. I want, and I have. If I needed to, I could be alone. I don't need to be alone. Love can burn you down or fill you up, but you wouldn't die without it.
It Is All Your Fault.
You are the only person that you can rely on. Therefore, if things are negative in your life, whose fault is it? Yours. You can blame others all you want. That's not going to get you anywhere. Or, you can choose to take value in pain, in sadness. To take away from it understanding. We can be weak. We can fall down. But whether or not we stay down is up to us. Looking back at where we fell we need to be able to say, "That is when I was learning." Or, "That was just before I grew." We can never say, "That's where I fell down." Don't stay down.
Lately I have been hyper aware of the minds around me. The views and the lives of others have been running through my mind constantly. It helps me to realize where I stand, and that my views do not depend on their place in life. Only my own. I am not wise. I have so much to learn. I am just beginning to see things from a place where I am calm, and where I can see things making sense. I want more to understand others, where they are coming from. It fascinates me and has made me see that I am coming into my own understandings.
To all of those whose minds I have pried. Thank you for our talks. We shall have many more I think.
