When people hurt you, does it mean they don’t love you?
Does it mean they don’t really care at all?
Take heart and wallow not yet in misery.
For the words which have pierced you the most,
words which may have even come
from the people you loved the most,
were not the only words said about you.
Those were probably not the only words
they’ve said about you;
not the only words they wanted to say;
and maybe, just maybe,
not the words they should have said
had they only known how to say
what they truly mean to say.

Aw, this was an extremely nice post. Taking a few minutes and actual effort to generate a very goood article… but
what can I say… I procrastinate a whole loot and don’t manage to get nearly anything
done.
I’m no longer positive the place you’re getting your information, but good topic.
I must spend a while studying more or working out more.
Thanks for wonderful info I used to be on the lookout for this
information for my mission.
