Over the years there is one piece of essential advice that I learned the hard way- lucky for you Im going to share this vital piece of wisdom with you now, although you've also known this truth all along.
Your friends and family are always right. Okay maybe not about our career choices, educational avenues, or personal style... but when it comes to relationships- they always tell it like it is. They know when you're with the wrong one.
The funny thing is, deep down inside- we secretly know too. But instead of listening to that tiny little voice of reason... we ignore the advice and go with our hearts, take a leap of faith , declare our undying love and keep it going. We argue with ourselves, make excuses, fantasize, romanticize and usually end up having full blown feuds with our friends and family members- all beacuse they know the truth.
Then it happens. One day a white light from the heavens beams through and verses of "hallelujah" may even be heard in the background. In that moment we get it. All the emotional conversations, the arguments and warnings that were once catapulted violently at us are right there in front of us. We are exposed. We see the truth, and get out.
Had I just listened to them in the first place, it would have saved a lot of heartache along the way. Live and learn, they say, live and learn.
