She...

"You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before, she may love again. She's not perfect - you aren't either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being a human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. So don't hurt her, don't change her, don't analyze and don't expect more then she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she's not there." - Bob Marley

I read this today and it kinda got to me. It gave me chills. I'm not sure if Bob Marley really said this but I like it either way. (Side note... I did Google it and everything I found said that he said it so, maybe he did)

But... Back to the quote. This quote makes me think about myself and a couple of very special friends that I have in my life. I think in a way this is what we all want. I know for me I have loved and I have lost. I have loved before and I will love again. I am not broken and I am not damaged goods. I am not perfect. I don't claim to be perfect. I know I will make a person happy and I will make a person laugh. I know that I can give my all and I can love deeply. I will give my heart away again and all I ask is that the person I give it away to will handle it with care. I know who I am so don't try to change me. If you don't like me for me, I'm okay with that one because that means I don't need you in my life. I will show you what you show me.
