“When we really see other people as they are without taking it personally, we can never be hurt by what they say or do. Even if others lie to you, it is okay. They are lying to you because they are afraid. They are afraid you will discover that they are not perfect. It is painful to take that social mask off.”

Sometimes I just have to stop reading a book. Not because I hate it. Not because it’s bad. Rather, I stop reading because it hurts. I’m so emotionally invested in the people and the story that I need to stop reading. It’s like trying to go through an entire lifetime in one day. You can’t; it emotionally and physically exhausts you. So I put a bookmark in, take a deep breath, shed a tear, and close the book until tomorrow…
