Moving foward...

Last night you thanked me for being real with you. Some part of me was surprised that you felt that way, and another part of me realized I still only let people into my life to a certain spot, and then the walls come up. The problem is that I have become such an expert at this, you wouldn't know I have walls, unless you're just good at reading people perhaps.

The other day I was talking with some girls about guarding your heart, and how can we do that. I realized that there are ways to guard your heart, but in relationships of any sort, there is always going to be the risk of getting hurt. Sometimes you just have to go out on a limb, knowing you may feel pain at a loss or get hurt because you let someone get close. It's part of life. You shouldn't block out people just because you feel pain. Relationships are what make life worth living, and when you don't have a relationship with God, or other people...your life will seem worthless and empty.

I am learning...to slowly let down the walls. I hope you're patient.

It's all in where you place your emotional security. In you? You'll put up walls and end up getting hurt and hurting others. In others? you'll be hurt over anything and end up hurting others. In God? Now you're talking.
