Trust

Trust only movement. Life happens at the level of events, not of words. ~ Alfred Adler

Is that just a pretty way to say that actions speak louder than words?

Someone I love told me that my tears are wasted on an unkind world. I'm not sure what to think of that. I put everything I have into caring for the people I love. Is that wasted?

I'd like to think it wasn't. I'd like to believe that my compassion and love is not wasted. But I'm not sure that I do.

I don't want to pity myself. I love because I love. And I give because I give. But everyone has a limit. How often can you put yourself out there before you want to scream "ITS MY TURN"!

I don't know. I want to believe the nice things people say, but the tears I've cried stops me. They leave me feeling insecure, and unsure.
