Feelings are funny things.

I have been thinking a lot these past couple days about feelings. How you can hold the same emotion for two people, but it's a different feeling for both. I have been thinking about letting people close, it's something that we need in life. We need someone to lean on, someone to help us in tough times. But letting people in is hard. Because the more you trust someone... or trust yourself with someone, the more they can hurt you. And the hurt isn't always something that is thought through. Sometimes it's a word or an action. Sometimes it's just the silence that is in the room. I have been hurt these past few days. And they have been from only a couple people, but they have been people that I trust with my secrets and feelings. So it's hard.

But one of the biggest things in life is forgiveness. Being able to move past the hurt and try again. I won't give up on these people. I won't back down. I will keep working on making my relationships with them better, stronger and easier. Things will fall into place they way they should. And until then, I will just keep standing up for myself and fighting beside them.
