Never allow
someone to be your PRIORITY while
allowing yourself to be their OPTION
– Mark Twain

In
my OPTION state, I have cared more for some than I did myself. I love hard, completely and unconditionally. I would go so far as to say that I fall in
love with the concept of love first and then all the possibilities. When I have fallen for the person I give and
give and give. I make myself
available. The kind of available that
sometimes spurs late nights and early mornings followed by empty dwellings
though he is just not ready to be exclusive to me. The kind of available that when He is not inthe mood for SHE, HE will call ME.
I’ve seen it with
people that I love and care about. They
allow themselves to be disrespected, belittled, and unhappy for the attention
of someone else. They love without the
same kind of loving in return. In this
instance they allow themselves not to be their PRIORITY. It's all easier said than done. I suppose we all play the fool sometimes. I guess we live and learn but this quote is always a reminder.
