Analysis of Once Told
You want to feel secure with yourself, your life, your money, your goals and your family life.
In this life, we're standing in the dark with lost selfish souls, which draws you to over think as follows:
It was once told, that love is just a myth.
Can you believe that?
It was once told, loving someone can get you hurt.
Is this possible?
It was once told, stand by their side no matter what.
Why, so you can feel unwanted, unappreciated, unloved, insecure and disrespected?
Taking time to process all the pain is overbearing.
What can you do to stop the pins and needles from hurting your soul?
Watch the karma come with no Intent to be easy without intentionally being evil.
