"Nobody loves you better because you have used yourself up for them." Gloria Feldt

You know I think this quote is absolutely Awesome!!!!! I happened upon it unintentionally as I was doing some early morning reading. What a pleasant surprise.

Earlier this week I expressed that I felt I wasn't getting what I needed in terms of energy from my immediate surroundings and relationships. Finding this today felt like a little whisper that said, when you begin to feel like you're being depleted this is what you are getting very close to. Reading this today was my confirmation you know, a providential answer of sorts and a rebuke to the notion that you continue on without being replenished.

It was great and I got through it with out too much drama or incident (with the exception of a few memorables, which is for another day another post). That being said, I didn't drink, smoke or experiment with drugs. I don't say that as some type of badge of honor because that's not the case at all. But it was apparent, that somewhere along the way I truly believed what my grandparents told me growing up about character, honor, and integrity. However, the older I get I've grown wary or maybe even cynical at what maybe appears to be watered-down standards we've immersed ourselves in society.
