I saw this one this evening and just had to share. We deserve the best ladies- Let's not "settle" for any further narcissistic relationships (lovers, friends, family etc) Life is too darn short. I felt this one. I hope you do to.
She’s not cold or distant, she’s anything but everything they would have you believe.
No, she doesn’t let anyone take advantage of her and she won’t let just anyone past her walls..but she has her reasons.
Everything that she is and everything that she has learned has come from a life of struggle and heartache.. even the battles she’s fought to become who she wanted to be.
She’s made bad decisions and she’s chosen the wrong people to love, but it never kept her from holding her head high and still believing in love.
People that don’t try to understand her or see past her steely resolve will always misinterpret her facade as hostile or bitter, but they couldn’t be more wrong.
She’s had to learn how to protect her heart from all the people that she used to let hurt her.
She’s had to fight for her happiness every step of the way, so she’s learned to appreciate the joy in all the moments of life- both big and small.
She’s had to claw, battle and dig deep to make it through some of her days..
But she’s still standing.
More than that, she’s got a smile on her face and fire in her heart.
Life can’t bring her down- it already tried that and failed.
She’s been through hell and back, that’s how she became the fire that sparks her spirit.
She’s not easy to love or quick to know, but she’s worth the effort- any effort- because a woman like her doesn’t come around often.
Those who seek to love her must have patience, truth and authenticity in their actions or she’ll walk away.
She’s been lied to, hurt and broken so many times that she’s lost count..
But that’s what made her strong, that’s what forged her strong will.
She’s learned her worth the hard way after being put down, mistreated and taken for granted- she vowed long ago to never let anyone treat her that way again.
People think because of her smile and gentle laugh that she’s just like everyone else..
And they’re so very wrong.
She’s the fire you don’t forget and the diamond that sparkles after all the struggles.
She’ll never settle, be disrespected or be treated as just another option.
Rain or shine, bad days or good, she’s always true to her word and real in her actions.
She doesn’t need a partner, charity or pity..
She knows who she is and what she wants..
Love- for herself, for her people and for the things that matter.
So, when you meet her, just accept her as she is and love her how you can..
To know her, love her and be a part of her life is to appreciate someone very special.
After all, the strongest people can often have the deepest love of all..
Cherish that love, for if she chooses to share that side of her with you,
That’s the most beautiful gift of all:
Her heart.
Protect it and you’ll always be glad you did.
