a quote.

this quote spurred a thought and a movement within my soul.  it struck a chord that resonated through my whole body, and made an appearance in my actions.  

"people who need love the most, are those who deserve it the least"

faith.

faith is part of who we are.  it's based around our opinions or beliefs, about one thing or another, that provide us with a spine, a foundation.  when we are solid in our beliefs it's easy to have faith.  when we're not sure what we believe, it's difficult to lose track of the truth.  i sit here in a peculiar situation, trying to make the best of it.  i decided to put pen to paper.  i have invested trust and faith in someone who may not be who they say.  it's the same sad song we've all heard play on repeat, i just never thought it would happen in such a way to myself.  luckily i'm not walking this path alone, and have the love of a man who will walk with me no matter the weather.  at the end of the day, when i crawl into the unfamiliar bed, i have the well-known warmth of his body next to mine, his arms wrapped around me and my heart, protecting both from the darkness.  so whatever presents itself in the future does not have power over my my happiness.  i have faith in who i am, and the people closest to me.  i have faith that God has a plan, and whatever tomorrow brings, is exactly what is supposed to show up.  as long as i have faith in my hopes and my dreams, there isn't anyone who will stand between me and destiny.
