Loving you.......

I saw the following quote posted on one of my best friends Facebook page, and thought it very appropriate for things that Geoffrey and I are facing right now:

"When you understand that other people LOVING YOU or NOT LOVING YOU...has nothing to do with you whatsoever, (but their own broken concepts about themselves) you will set yourself FREE of need, expectation and one of the most painful traps of SUFFERING we have created for ourselves. There is nothing you need to DO to get people to LOVE you. Just BE. And LOVE Yourself...and you'll be alright." ~Heather Madder

This is something that I have struggled with for most of my life, and something that I need to remind myself of daily. There are a lot of things that I have done/happened in my life that I wish I could fix, but I have came to realize that some of those things are unfixable. I just need to work on on the things that are in my control....work on bettering myself, being there for my husband and little girl, and being the best wife and mother possible. This is all that matters.
