One more step

Out of everything that happened to me, love is the one thing that almost brought me to my knees. That almost had me giving up. But it’s also somehow the easiest thing to believe in again. Whatever we call human weakness, of wanting to be loved, giving until we get taken advantage of, is also our greatest strength. What makes us easily hurt is also what makes us inclined towards loving again, trusting again, believing in the soul of others again. When you have lost total faith, when you think it’s smarter to give up, it’s a good idea to try just one more time. You may just be stepping from faith to certainty.
