Once you start to become more quiet, observant and self-reflective you begin to understand and honor the things and people that deserve your time and energy..
You think you love a person until it’s time to help clean up their vomit, help bath them when they’re sick, hold them at 3 am when they are losing their mind, crying their eyeballs out. You think you love a person until you are sitting on the 3rd month of their depressive phase, they refuse to eat, wake up, bath, and be productive, no sexual appetite, or loving you. You think you love a person until their supposed unattractive side shows up early morning of the hours, the setback, and loss of self, the distress, and hopelessness. You think you love a person? Wait until you see them at their worst. Right now you love the rainbow, the storm is coming.
