You
think
because he doesn't love
You,
that you are
worthless.
You think that because he
doesn't want you anymore, that he is right - That his
judgement and opinion of you are correct.
If he throws you out, then you are garbage.
You think that he belongs to you because you want to belong
to him.
Don't.
It's a bad word, 'belong'.
Especially when you put it with somebody you love.
Love shouldn't be like that.
Did you ever see the way the clouds love a mountain? They
circle all around it; sometimes you can't even see the
mountain for the clouds.
But you know what?
You go up top and what do you see?
His head. The clouds never cover the head. His head pokes
through, because the clouds let him; they don't wrap him
up.
They let him keep his head up high, free, with nothing to
hide or bind him.
You can't own a human being.
You can't lose what you don't own.
Suppose you did own him. Could you really love somebody who
was absolutely nobody without you?
You really want somebody like that?
Somebody who falls apart when you walk out the door?
You don't,do you?
And neither does he. You're turning over your whole life
to him.
Your whole life.
And if it means so little to you that you can just give it
away, hand it to him, then why should it mean any more to
him?
He can't value you more than you value
yourself.
