It's Amazing

Sometimes I sit in awe of how people react to life around them. We all have our reasons (however small) for the things we do. Sometimes one may be alone in the understanding of those reasons, but the reason is ours nonetheless. Sometimes I sit and think about the numerous instances of completely unmerited emotional responses to a situation. Why did I lash out? What did they do that was so wrong to deserve these words that have cut into their soft flesh? Sometimes the heart overpowers the mind.

The interesting thing is that your bitterness toward someone is only possible because of your love!! In turn, that bitterness should be taken as such. Can't you see what they are really saying? These terrible words of anger are but a powerfully sung lovesong, a poem from the heart, card on your birthday, and a tender kiss on the that part of the neck that only they know. Here you sit, broken and bitter, bitter, bitter. Angry! Because they showed you love.

If only everyone could read the truth in our souls. If only we could see it when it is needed. Rather than looking back and being too full of our own pride to state the obvious. I guess realization is the first step. Check.
