Thanks. You are the first (only) to read it.

So it worked?

Because...I guess I am cynical but adoration does have a very dark side. I used to believe love and adoration were the same thing but they truly are not. Two different sides in a way. One is something to seek and one is not.

When I was young, I could not see this though.

Your words are kind. Thanks.

Well, I'm the (only) to read it because it just went up. :-p

I think it worked very well. And yeah, adoration has an absolute dark side to it. You're very right that love and adoration can be two totally different things. There are some who *never* see through that.

Adoration can be selfish.

Love says, "I trust you to grow, to choose, to exist apart and I hope you choose me anyways."

It's true with parents too. And I try to be the kind that loves but not adores. Adoration never pretends that one can be more. Adoration ruins kids as well as lovers.

::hugs you back, my friend::

I appreciate the feedback you gave me.

I support jumping. Also breathing freely.

A short piece, but intense. The terseness really conveys the anger and frustration.

I like it. Meaning, I like the writing style, the descriptions, the pacing. I don't like that I know all too well the situation or that you'd ever have to deal with it. I wish nobody did.
