Thinking that a hurtful action represents a lack of love but you can hurt someone you love and someone who loves you can hurt you too. I have been really upsetting mysef over some events that felt painful and yet in each case the people have said and in many other ways shown me that they do love me. Hard not to jump to wrong conclusions. Hard not to let that be your whole focus. Hard to overcome and believe the truth that love is imperfect. That people have their own problems, needs and joys and errors come oftentimes from their own pain. Imperfect people living in an imperfect world!
