If you really cared...

The word "care" and "love" is thrown around a lot these days...kidding not going to be some typical confession. Although to care and love for someone will come with responsibilities. You must be careful of what you say/do around them, you need to treat them right, you have to take into consideration of their feelings and their well being and you obviously need to respect them. Those are only a few things you have to keep in mind though. I'm not saying I'm perfect with all these things, I do sometimes do things to hurt the people I love/care for but I do realise what I do wrong and attempt to fix it. You know one of the things that annoys me is when someone in the relationship asks for the other person to stop talking to someone but the person responds with "It's my life, I do what I want, I talk with who I want." Why is it necessary to say this? It could be put nicer but even better if you truly care for the person you will consider this, you will need to weight everything up. Is your relationship with that other person, worth hurting the person you love/care for? Sometimes I guess it's okay to reject the idea of not talking to another person anymore. Although it is really only the case if you're extremely close with them, close with them before the person asking for this request or you did not meet them from that person and that's all I can think of at the moment. Although what if you're really hurting the person you love/care for? Well, you obviously open your eyes and actually do what they asked or reduce how much you talk to that person. I've seen this happen with so many times. However, it is also the person that is asking for this request to realise if it is reasonable to ask for that, to be careful to also not hurt that other person. Anyways, see with this example there are so many responsibilities with this. Like any normal person I am still foreign to this, I'm still learning but I guess this is just a little advice from what I have learnt.

To open your heart to someone is a risk although the outcome tends to be the most amazing thing and that is all worth the risk of getting hurt. Whether you get hurt or not, the experience is all worth it because you will get through everything in the end "what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger." I am an extremely closed person but when I do open my heart to someone, I cherish it. I love the feeling of being to tell someone everything, to have someone there for me. I guess I'm sort of hypocritical here is that I do choose carefully to who I trust but really if a great opportunity comes take it, if you're sure that person is someone you want to open up to take it...because sometimes you need to take risk to grasp something wonderful. Love can hurt, it puts you in a vulnerable state, it causes your emotions to be heightened but it doesn't necessarily hurt because it can be the best thing that ever happens to you. It only hurts if you let it hurt you :) haha I don't know where I'm going with that sentence or that post. I guess I'm just saying if you stay strong love will always be something positive.

I love my family, I love my close friends and of course I love my boyfriend...and I guess that puts me in a vulnerable state but it's all worth it. :)

Love Christina

P.S. This was meant to be a sort of rant post because of so many stories I hear but it turned into a mushy, lovey dovey, advice giving thing haha. Yay for Christina's loving mood.
P.P.S. I wasn't trying to sound all up myself, as if I know so much about about these things...I'm still learning :) but this is from what I've noticed  and some advice I would like to give from my experiences and stories I hear and so on. :) I'm sure there are heaps more things. Feel free to reject it or take it :)
