Wow.
It's incredible what clarity can do for you.
How a different perspective can turn your gray-scale world technicolor.
I just had a much needed conversation
And something I was reminded of from the actual conversation itself (not even the words that were spoken) was how stupid easy it is to think things that aren't the least bit true... all because of not simply asking to hear the truth. It's not even that we aren't able to hear; it's that we haven't grown the cojones to ask to hear.
How much heartache could be saved if we asked?
I imagine know there have been people who've suffered for years (YEARS!) because they never asked.
I don't know about you, but I certainly don't want to be in that boat.
I also don't want to facilitate that for anyone else.
I hope that the next time I start thinking something that seems the least bit shady, I ask.
I hope the next time I notice someone's body language change, how they start to semi-shut down, I ask.
Don't be afraid to ask.
Not only could you be saving yourself from unnecessary heartache, you could be saving someone else from the same thing.
Now, what the conversation was filled with?
Details aren't necessary.
But it's certainly the proof of deeply rooted love, not the negation of it.
And it honestly wouldn't surprise me if I never loved another again.
But that's a story for another day...
