intentions

Today I see that love believes the best of intentions.  If proven wrong, then so be it.  But, until then, why not believe good in people?

Love is not easily angered.  Love always trusts.  Love always hopes (even for the best to be true).

Oh, how easy it is to believe the worst when we are hurting.  The pain digs deep and thoughts start to creep in.

How important it is to communicate in healthy, non-violent ways...choosing to learn from situations instead of sitting in bitter silence or, even worse, gossiping chatter.  It seems to me that most people have valid intentions, even if misunderstood.

"Knowing that we can be loved exactly as we are gives us all the best opportunity for growing into the healthiest of people."
