sometimes i forget

all my adult life, i've learned this lesson the hard way, that if something is too good to be true, then it probably is. there is no such thing as a free lunch, no such thing as 'no strings attached'. there is always a catch.

why do i keep forgetting that? sometimes i find myself having faith in people, sometimes i trust them even. in those times, i almost always end up being disappointed. maybe i expect so much from them that it's unfair. i should just watch my own butt and look after myself. i shouldnt be dependent on other people, may it be for my food, for my ride, for my happiness, for my sanity. i can do this. i can make my own happiness, i can take care of myself.

me. myself. and i.

Hey sweetheart. Yes, I agree with you about taking care of yourself and being independent. But please do believe that there are still some good people left in the world.

Hope you're okay. Miss exchanging comments with you.

I can relate all too well about being way too trusting. I'm the same way. I give my trust totally then I find out I shouldn't have trusted that person. It hurts, yes, but we gotta keep on trusting. My belief is that I'd rather get hurt trusting than become a jaded cynic. Life is still beautiful. We just have to look harder.

Try to catch a breath sweetheart. Chat with you again soon. -tight hug-

Yes, Thailand! Will definitely post pics of that trip :-)
