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
