It's a bittersweet symphony, this life. I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down.Let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now. And I'm a million different people from one day to the next, I can't change my mold. And it's a bittersweet symphony, this life. - The Verve

Happy Love
Today is February 1st, the month of love. I have been thinking about love lately and how people show it.As a person of faith, I know I have to forgive much because I have been forgiven much. Where do you draw the line though when how you are treated is not okay with you? Is it possible to remove yourself from a situation without animosity and bitterness? I am in the midst of a hurtful situation. Things were written to me that were ridiculous and untrue.I was blamed for out and out lies. I have to believe the people committing these acts thought they were doing the right thing, even though if they had taken over 2 minutes to think through their actions, I think they would have realized how unnceccesary it was..These are people I thought were friends and I trusted. While I don't feel animosity toward them, my love for them is gone. I do not feel they had my best interests at heart. Now occasionally I hear a message on 'not being sensitive'. Is it sensitive to feel excluded? Is it sensitive to be accused of falsehoods? I don't know. I only know my personality doesn't want to open myself up to them anymore. We are taught to weep with those who weep and rejoice with those who rejoice. I have people in my life who I have been there for them when they wept, trying to comfort and care for them Yet when I wept, they were nowhere around. I have rejoiced with them when good things came their way, yet when I rejoiced, nothing. It has taken me a long time to realize the words these people say do not match up with their actions. Someone cheated me out of a substantial amount of money. I don't think I could do that to someone. I am learning I have to cut these unhealthy relationships out of my life. I read something today that talked about focusing on the beauty in your life. That is where I am.I can let someone else be the judge for these people, I just want to focus on the beauty and love that I have in my life. I wish you lots of love in your life.
