Life has a funny, yet brutal way of escorting us back to the sore spots. Sometimes, they’re so well masked we didn’t know they were still causing us harm, just beneath the surface of our process of clumsily clambering for understanding and self-realization.

We often confuse love with our idea of love. We project old hurts, expectations, and unmet needs onto those closest to us. Look beyond the behavior, recognize the person, but don’t abandon yourself in the process. There’s more to love than we think.
We don’t have to agree with everyone, understand everything, or fight every battle. Perhaps our greatest contribution is to become more conscious of our own reactions, lead by example, and recognize the humanity and value in those around us.
Love is a given, as is grace.
There is enough. Everything else is a lie. I need to remind myself of this time and again.
