state of mind.
I find there is no point in saying you will do something, when there is a chance you will not follow through. When you know other things will be keeping your attention for the evening, and your intentions are not what were led to me to believe - then just tell me. Its irritating and rude. Even more so because I'm here and you're there. Communication is nice. And when I'm believing I'll receive a phone call and I don't get it, it angers me. I won't hold my breath with an expectation of a good excuse; there isn't one.

survival means woman.
"Spiteful words can hurt your feelings but silence breaks your heart."
The day you were born, you encompassed innocence, mercy, love, forgiveness, and the instinctual characteristics of survival. You were surrounded by those who loved you in a way they had never loved before. Your parents stared in awe at a creation of themselves. Bits and pieces were instilled within you from the ones who protested to love you the most. It didn't take much to keep you content and you blindly welcomed love with open arms. You had yet to feel pain, anger, hurt, and witness things that no one, and I mean no one of any age, should have to see. Times were simple then.
Many years later, you are a grown woman. You feel like you've seen the world and know everything. As a woman, you have the drive to love someone more than yourself, reach out to those in need or those who have wronged you or hurt you. Show those who are closest to you the ways of life to save them from making the same mistakes you have. You are a nurturer, care-giver, listener, lover, friend, and mother. You brave the world each day and sometimes you forget that those character traits you possessed as an infant, won't keep you safe anymore.
You yearn to love, but have learned to hold back. You listen, but know to guard your heart from lashings of the tongue. You try and give everything you are to those you feel deserve it the most, but have trained your mind to guard the one piece of yourself, that if given away, will kill you.
We are born to love anyone who gives us attention and life has taught us to love with closed minds and protected hearts.
You chose the company of the very people who have changed you. And, as a woman, you made the choice to continue to love them anyway. You are strong, you are beautiful, and no matter what anyone thinks or says, you will survive this life.
