No one should have the power to let words destroy - but they do - and we let them because we believe too easily that what others say of us - see of us - is true. -
But there is another way - and there is freedom in the realisation that you can regain power - you can learn that love is something very different to the passion and all consuming need you believe it to be - you can learn that what you are searching for is so simple it is often passed by -
And you learn that what matters can never be brought and should only give pleasure and warmth and comfort - and you learn truly the value of 'to cherish' and you don't need to feel any other way - than to feel good!
