Love and stardust, then. You could set your watch by either, though they wouldn't serve much besides romantic far-flung notions.
Thank you for saying that. I don't think she did, either. I also don't entirely believe she is to blame for her shortcomings, much as they hurt us. It is a difficult thing, to truly be worthy of a child's love. They love so freely, so unconditionally, that to take advantage of such love without having really earned it seems far too easy.
It's an ongoing struggle, the battle with self-worth. The things I recognize and forgive in other people might often be unforgivable in my own mirror's reflection.
They did. I've never been a liar, nor a cheat. I loved them differently then, and I still do. I don't think any two loves have ever been the same. They can be equal in their differences, however. Just because I never lied doesn't mean I never hurt anyone with my capacity to love. Ironic, isn't it? It's usually the other way around. People talk so freely of being hurt by a lack of love, but love can cut just as deeply with even sharper of an edge.
