My heart is no longer heavy.

[MRSnMOTHER]

To accept another is to accept them as them, but this is not to be confused with allowing yourself to be hurt. I am slowly learning and it took me this long to take in the fact that, my love to others will not be returned full fold. The sacrifices that I make for others in some cases will be only accepted but accepted vainly. I see that not every loved one will consider my feelings when making their decisions, no matter how much my heart gives.

This will not alter my perception on how to love. I give from every aspect, rather it be material to emotional, I give . I give loyalty. I give laughter, I give love. I love in hopes that this will not be misunderstood and taken for granted.

I realize now that all things cannot be accepted. I can accept people even if flawd, however I do not have to take in the things that are selfish and the things that hurt me. Rather big or small. Rather it be kin, friend, or husband. I have decided not to let my feelings be disregarded.  If in any matter if I am appreciated, my feelings will not have to be presented by consideration but by loyalty. Those who love me will not hurt me, this is not an option.

Love and be loved.
