Few People Understand What It Means

“Few people understand what it means to really be there for somebody. And that’s the toughest part about being on a journey. You realize the main ones that said they will ride with you, are the first ones to fall off. People make promises when the sun is shining and make excuses when the storm comes. That’s why I am always thankful for the rain. It washes away the unnecessary. The reality is, you could be amazing, genuine, and sincere, but still be overlooked. Having a good thing is so hard because meeting a strong person is so rare.” -Unknown

We Are Often Let Down

“We are often let down by the most trusted people and loved by the most unexpected ones. Some make us cry for things that we haven’t done, while others ignore our faults and just see our smile. Some leave us when we need them the most, while some stay with us even when we ask them to leave. The world is a mixture of people. We just need to know which hand to shake and which hand to hold! After all, that’s life, learning to hold on and learning to let go.” -Unknown

Constantly Torn

I openly admit I struggle with this. My life experience has been that people are predominantly not so good. That will, obviously, differ from person to person (and I do have some amazing people in my life, don’t get me wrong), but I double-checked with a handful of people who agree with me. Does anyone else struggle with this where friends and family are concerned?
