My Motto

Melissa Lawson
Never let them see you cry;
it would be worse than to die.
They only want to see you hurt;
they'll walk on you as if you're dirt.
Never let them see you shrink;
only let them see you think.
Never fall within their will;
into your heart, they will drill.
They want to know how you feel inside;
so, never, in anyone, confide.
Never show them you feel pain;
then they will know what they have gained.

    It so sad that so many of us feel the need to build protective walls to keep people out. Sometimes it hard to trust.

    I learned this a long time ago. Weakness often means you drop in the pecking order and one day get pecked to death by others.
