Love really is about people coming together to support each other.
All the little tricks and games they play to get their needs met are just that, tricks and games.
It would be so much simpler if we honored ourselves and trusted each other enough to ask for what we need.
Instead, we wait for them to figure it out; if they don't, we hold them responsible.
What a cruel trick!
When we let others know up front what we need, we have a greater chance of having the need met.
We must know that our needs are important, our needs do matter.
Once we let others know what we need, we must accept their honest answer as to whether or not they can meet those needs.
If they cannot, we must decide if these are the people we want in our lives.
I honor my needs by letting others know what they are.
I honor my needs by letting others know what they are.

Yes, this something I had to learn (and am STILL learning). I think I think that sometimes people are mind readers and know what my needs are, but they don't. It's up to me to let others know.
"I honor my needs by letting others know what they are.'
Amen!
Thanks for this reminder, Mel!
