You learn that most people are neither for you or against you. They are thinking of themselves. You learn that no matter what you do, some people aren’t going to love you. A lesson that is at first troubling, then quite relaxing.

Isn't it? I come back to this sentiment time and time again. It's a real bedrock for me.

Oh, true for reals. I love it! Let be, let be. *g*

[trans_elysiance]

Exactly! I like to remind myself of that however I can :)

But for every few hundred people who don't love you, you've got at least one person who'll stick by you 'til forever and love you no matter what.

I figure that's the one thing I've got that keeps me going through the worst times.

So very, very true. That's one of the things I love about the great truths in life: they always have two non-contradictory sides, both equally comforting (and frightening *g*) in their own way.

I'm still waiting for the relaxing part, sometimes anyways, but still very very true, my friend. Love you.

*hugs* You'll get there, sweetie, I know you will :)
