I recently saw this post on Life Coach Los Angeles' blog. It reminded me that sometimes the best lessons come from those we least expect it from.

Hello! is it me you're looking for???

"Never ignore a person who loves you, cares for you, and misses you. Because one day, you might wake up from your sleep and realize that you lost the moon while counting the stars." ~unknown 

I had a patient ask me today, "doctor how do we love in a healthy way?" the question perplexed me for a second and put me in a thought. For once, I was short on my words. My response, "be consistant but not too persistent, share and never be unfair, understand and try not demand, and allow yourself to get hurt, but never keep the pain."

Mind:
Venomous lies heard too often,
Can you blame me when my heart turns rotten? 
Poisoning my ears with the words I yearn to hear, 
Can you blame me when I begin to fear love?

Heart:
"No, but this time it's different,
he means what he says!"

Mind:
Really?  So his actions are true?
Funny little girl so naive and blind
Don't you understand there is no one of a kind!
They're all the same, they spit their game to satisfy their needs,
there is no shame.

Never ignore a person who loves you, cares for you, and misses you. Because one day, you might wake up from your sleep and realize that you lost the moon while counting the stars.
