Thursday Thoughts...

One of the most amazing things that can happen is finding someone who sees everything you are and won’t let you be anything less. They see the potential of you. They see endless possibilities. And through their eyes, you start to see yourself the same way as someone who matters. As someone who can make a difference in the world. If you’re lucky enough to find this person, never let them go.

As I think about friendships, and partnerships and love, these words appeared from the long list and settled quietly. 

They say so much about how the best of those around us can show us ourselves and can reflect back to us the good things that we are and that we do. They can help us realise things about ourselves that we have wrapped up and put away in boxes; or never even believed for an instant. They help us see possibilities.

I think this is because of trust.  If you trust a person and believe they care about you; when they tell you something you listen. Their gift is to see the fullness of you; and believe in it.
