Sometimes we give love to the wrong person, and we sit there and wonder, ‘how could I have given love to that person? They don’t even deserve it,’ or ‘what a waste of time.’ But the things is, you shouldn’t think about it that way. You should think of the fact that you were able to give love, because if you are able to give love, that means you have it inside of you. It’s this same thing with kindness, with honesty, with your ability to care about people. Don’t focus on the way that people abuse that. Focus on the fact that you have it within you, and that it makes you who you are. It makes you a beautiful person, a beautiful human being.

My favourite therapist says a committed, intimate, monogamous relationship is when both people have “ten toes in the circle,” meaning both people are fully engaged in the relationship. If there are any “I love you, but’s” then the commitment is not sound. If one person has less than ten toes in the circle, the commitment is not solid. If someone has more than ten toes in the circle, this is not sound either. Both people have to be committed for a relationship to have a chance at success. Just sayin’ :) Hugs. XO
