Hello Glenna —

Thanks for sharing this.

I cheated — and cheated — and cheated — on myself, on others, on life — until I could not cheat again.

After it all — and without knowing I’d ultimately reach this place, I determined that I must always, and with everyone, double down on love.

It’s the only choice for me.

How and where I apply the increase is optional — but love is my only option!

Living in fear, with shame, enraged, trust-broken, and burdened by resentment when it comes to another’s behaviors or decisions is just not for me.

Compassion (if that’s the most I can muster), for the one who hurt me is a form of love.

And maybe that’s the only kind of love they were born to receive from me. Or maybe it’s just the start of the love I will grow into for them.

Thanks for staking a courageous claim here!

Michael
