Dear Rachael:

You wrote: “When I love someone… I want to believe things can work. Then like clockwork… I get slapped by reality that this person doesn’t love me at all”-

this is what happens when what we believe does not fit reality, we get slapped, we get hurt.

Reality does not change because we don’t believe in it. It really doesn’t care if we believe in it or not. It is just there, being… real.

Because reality will not fit what we believe, better we believe in what is real.
