Fooled

“They were so focused on the mechanics and the process that they never looked at the problem holistically. In the act of tearing something apart, you lose its meaning”

Malcolm Gladwell

Song: Loved You A Little – The Maine

Thought: I believe that people tell me the truth and their intentions are normally positive. That makes me a bit naive in my friendships and partnerships. Our broken edges hurt the people we love most. My brokenness is to keep giving long past the time I might stop, thinking it gets me to belonging. The uncomfortable truth is that I might be the flavor of the moment. It’s not intentionally cruel, it’s just who we are sometimes. That’s where I’m growing boundaries to protect myself from being fooled. I know where I belong – no more seeking in the wrong places.
