I Love You

I Love You
I love you does not mean that I will accept
your unacceptable behavior.
I love you does not mean that I will allow
you to hurt me emotionally whenever you choose.
I love you does not mean that I will let
you crush my spirit and wound my soul.
I love you does not mean that I will let you tell me who I am or control my decisions.
I love you does not mean that I will allow you to hurt people I love.
I love you does not mean that I will not walk away from you, if you do those things.
I have learned through God’s grace, that I can live without you,
but I cannot live without me.

  1. Stunningly Awesome, My Dear!! Such truth and wisdom learned the Hard Way! Love some of the co-dependent writings on this subject. One line I love is “I love you, I just can’t live with you!!” Letting go and saving yourself seems like such a natural thing to do and yet so often it is the hardest thing to do!! A Magnificent Masterpiece! Please be sure and include this in your “Best Of List”!!
    Bless you, My Dear!
