"When you love someone, you say their name different. Like it's safe inside your mouth."
- Jodi Picoult (Handle with Care)
xian sent a msg on mon tt went something like e quote. & i guess that's e entire essence of love...knowing that you can trust someone with your name, or the essence of who you are. likewise, if you love someone, you'd say their name like it's your own; you'd love them as you love yourself; you'd do unto them wat you'd want to be done unto you.
Lord give me the strength & heart to love, even when that trust is broken. to forgive & let go of hurtful words said in a moment of carelessness. & most of all, to not assume or demand that love be given...but to always give love freely.
